WNBA Orange Carpet: Top 10 Picks
The 2025 WNBA Draft took place on Monday night, but it's more than just about which teams drafted which players. In the digital, social media, and NIL age, image can be paramount, so bringing your style A-game is almost as crucial as your on-court game.

Let's see how nine of the top 10 draft picks and a commish rocked the orange carpet.
10. Ajsa Sivka - Chicago Sky
Ajsa Sivka brought timeless grace to the orange carpet in a silky slate-gray gown paired with a chic cream moto-style jacket draped over her shoulders. She completed the look with pointed heels, a pearl-accented clutch, and soft glam makeup—balancing modern edge with classic sophistication. The Slovenian standout made a poised impression ahead of being selected 10th overall by the Chicago Sky at the 2025 WNBA Draft.
9. Sarah Ashlee Barker - Los Angeles Sparks
Sarah Ashlee Barker brought sleek sparkle to the orange carpet in a shimmering two-piece set by Revolve. The glittery gray ensemble featured a long-sleeve crop top with an elegant draped neckline and a matching skirt with an asymmetric hem. She paired the look with clear heels and a silver clutch before being selected ninth overall by the Los Angeles Sparks, radiating confidence and glamor on her big night.
8. Saniya Rivers - Connecticut Sun
Saniya Rivers made a statement before even hitting the draft stage, turning heads in a bold, custom white ensemble with red-accented braids and gold jewelry—but it was her accessory that stole the show. Her light pink Birkin-style purse emblazoned with “THE WNBA BEEN POPPIN” (three slides back) instantly went viral, capturing the energy and pride of the night. The standout look set the tone before Rivers was selected eighth overall by the Connecticut Sun, proving her fashion game is just as fierce as her play on the court.
7. Aneesah Morrow - Connecticut Sun
Aneesah Morrow brought major attitude to the orange carpet in a head-to-toe Custom Coach ensemble that oozed sleek sophistication. Her look featured a structured leather jacket layered over a matching top and high-slit skirt, paired with pointed heels and a signature Coach chain bag. Morrow’s all-black fit and oversized shades exuded cool confidence before she was selected seventh overall by the Connecticut Sun at the 2025 WNBA Draft.
6. Georgia Amoore - Washington Mystics
Georgia Amoore turned heads on the orange carpet in a bold black satin two-piece with oversized floral embroidery—custom designed none other than Denver Nuggets guard and former NBA MVP Russell Westbrook. The look marked a historic moment, with Westbrook becoming the first NBA player to design an outfit for a WNBA draftee. The sharp suit perfectly captured Amoore’s fearless style ahead of being selected sixth overall by the Washington Mystics at the 2025 WNBA Draft.
5. Justee Jocyte - Golden State Valkyries
With their first ever WNBA draft pick at No. 5, the Golden State Valkyries selected Lithuanian star, Juste Jocyte. While the future Valkyries shooting guard was not in attendance commissioner Cathy Engelbert wasn't left out of the fashion showcase as she announced the historic selection. She wore a vibrant fuchsia pantsuit, featuring sharp tailoring and a double-breasted blazer. She completed the power look with gold platform heels, adding a bold, polished touch to the ensemble.
4. Kiki Iriafen - Washington Mystics
Kiki Iriafen lit up the orange carpet in a radiant gold and bronze custom gown by Nigerian designer Nneka Alexander of Brides by Nona, proudly honoring her Nigerian heritage with regal elegance. The flowing silhouette and intricate detailing captured cultural pride and orange-carpet glam in perfect harmony. Before being selected fourth overall by the Washington Mystics out of USC, Iriafen made a powerful fashion statement that celebrated her roots and spotlighted African design on one of the WNBA's basketball’s biggest nights.
3. Sonia Citron - Washington Mystics
Sonia Citron brought high fashion to the WNBA Draft stage, rocking an all-Custom Coach ensemble before being selected third overall by the Washington Mystics. Her bold draft-night fit featured a structured blazer paired with a sleek skirt, complemented by standout Coach shoes and layered necklaces. Finishing the look with a chic Coach handbag, Citron served effortless sophistication with a modern edge—making just as strong a statement off the court as she’s expected to on it.
2. Dominique Malonga - Seattle Storm
They say Europe sets the trends and before going second overall to the Seattle Storm, French center Dominique Malonga repped her home country. The slick post player wore a suit and jewelry from French designer Louis Vuitton.
