Angel Reese is stepping into a new spotlight, and this time it’s not on the basketball court. The Chicago Sky star is set to make history next week when she walks in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, becoming the first professional athlete ever to grace the brand’s runway. The news comes after a breakout year for Reese, who continues to make waves far beyond her record-setting performances in the WNBA.
She announced the exciting milestone with a video shared on her and Victoria’s Secret’s Instagram pages. The clip featured Reese showing off her athletic figure in a black lingerie set paired with the brand’s signature wings, giving fans a preview of what to expect when she hits the runway. The video immediately went viral, with followers flooding the comments to celebrate her confidence and trailblazing moment in fashion.
The highly anticipated fashion show will take place in New York City on October 15. Alongside Reese’s debut, audiences can expect performances from global stars including Karol G, Missy Elliott, Madison Beer, and TWICE. With a lineup that mixes sports, fashion, and music, the event is already shaping up to be one of the biggest nights of the year.
Off the court, Reese has become a force in the fashion world. She’s attended the Met Gala two years in a row and recently collaborated with Reebok to launch her own sneaker. Her inclusion in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show solidifies her place as a cultural icon, representing strength, style, and self-assurance. For Reese, it’s another groundbreaking achievement that continues to inspire fans everywhere — proving that her reach goes well beyond basketball.
