While speaking with WWD on the arrival carpet, Cardoso admitted her WNBA Draft look wasn’t front-of-mind. “We had a game, a championship game, so I wasn’t really thinking about it,” she said. “And then after we won I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, the draft is next [week]. I don’t have an outfit.’ I made some calls. I was like, I just want a suit, let’s go red, it’s my favorite color. And [the designer] did it perfectly, without coming to my apartment to measure me. I tried it on Thursday, and it fit perfectly. I was shocked.”

Cardoso wasn’t the only basketball star who wore a high fashion look for the WNBA Draft. Among some of the stand-out ensembles on the red carpet, Caitlin Clark wore a look by Prada, Angel Reese fashioned a design by Bronx and Banco and more college basketball stars threw on their best threads for the night.
