Caitlin Clark, #22 of the Indiana Fever, made an entrance at the 2024 WNBA All-Star Weekend, held at the Phoenix Convention Center on Thursday. The basketball star’s sartorial choices continue to capture the attention of fashion enthusiasts and fans alike, and her recent appearance was no exception.
Clark graced the orange carpet in a Versace sheer mini dress. The neutral-toned ensemble showcased her athletic silhouette while maintaining a sophisticated, elegant vibe. However, it was her choice of footwear that truly stole the show, demonstrating why Clark is fast becoming a fashion icon.
Styled by Adri Zgirdea, Clark wore pointed-toe slingback heels, crafted from creamy white leather. The heels, known as the Gianni Ribbon Pumps featured a sleek design with a delicate gold buckle featuring the Versace logo at the vamp. The pointed toes and slim heels elongated her legs giving the athlete a heightened appearance.

Clark accessorized with a Versace Medusa 95 white handbag that matched her heels. Her minimalistic jewelry also from the luxury Italian heritage brand, including a dainty chain link necklace and bracelet.
Caitlin Clark’s fashion choices align her with a new wave of athletes who are making significant strides in the fashion world. Joining the ranks of Lewis Hamilton, Angel Reese, A’ja Wilson, and others, Clark is redefining what it means to be a style icon in the sports industry. These athletes are not only excelling in their respective fields but are also making bold statements through their fashion, proving that style and athleticism can seamlessly coexist.
While Clark is often spotted in Nike gear on the court—thanks to her recent contract rumored to be worth up to $28 million—her off-court style leans more towards sophisticated pumps from brands like Stuart Weitzman, Versace, and Prada for formal events. At the WNBA Draft in April, Clark opted for a pair of black brushed leather slingback pumps from Prada. These elegant shoes featured a sleek pointed-toe design and slim heels measuring between 3 and 4 inches.
