Prada Makes WNBA Draft History Dressing Caitlyn Clark

In a historic move for both the fashion and basketball worlds, luxury brand Prada dressed Caitlyn Clark for her appearance at the 2024 WNBA draft. This marks the first time Prada has outfitted a WNBA draft prospect, breaking new ground for the high-fashion label.


"Caitlyn Clark is a trailblazer both on and off the court," said Miuccia Prada, creative director of Prada. "We are honored to dress her for this momentous occasion and celebrate her journey to the WNBA."


Clark, who is projected to be a top-5 pick in the upcoming draft, donned a sleek Prada pantsuit in a rich burgundy hue. The tailored ensemble featured clean lines and subtle details that complemented Clark's confident and poised demeanor.


"It's a dream come true to be drafted into the WNBA, and I'm incredibly grateful to Prada for partnering with me on this moment," said Clark. "Fashion has always been a passion of mine, so to be dressed by such an iconic brand is truly an honor."


The move by Prada to dress Clark marks a significant shift in the brand's relationship with women's basketball. Historically, the luxury fashion world has focused primarily on dressing male athletes, leaving many female stars without the same high-profile style partnerships.


"Caitlyn's selection by Prada is a powerful statement about the growing influence and prominence of the WNBA," said WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert. "We're thrilled to see a brand of Prada's caliber recognize the immense talent and star power of our league's players."



As Clark takes the stage at the 2024 WNBA draft, her Prada-clad appearance will undoubtedly inspire young athletes and fashion enthusiasts alike, paving the way for more collaborations between the world of high fashion and women's professional sports.
