Throughout the Knicks\u2019s historic playoff run, Jordyn Woods\u2019s \u201clucky bag\u201d worked almost as hard as the players. Once she started carrying the orange \u201cTux\u201d bag she designed herself, the Knicks embarked on a 13-game winning streak and continued to become 2026 NBA champions. (In fact, the only time she was not allowed to bring the bag they lost.) Before taking some much deserved rest, the bag is continuing its own New York victory lap and making its museum debut at the Guggenheim.<\/p>\n

Woods\u2019s \u201clucky bag\u201d will be on view for the public for five days beginning tomorrow at the Guggenheim New York\u2019s Caf\u00e9 Rebay. The display of the viral good luck charm celebrates the Knicks\u2019 historic win. \u201cWhen I heard Karl-Anthony Towns say that maybe the lucky bag should come to the Guggenheim, I was thrilled,\u201d said Mari\u00ebt Westermann, Director and CEO, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Foundation.<\/p>\n

The bag has become so much more than a bag. Last week, the bag accompanied Woods to the Knicks\u2019 ticker-tape parade where it was held by New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani<\/a> and Governor Kathy Hochul. The now sold out faux ostrich bag, which retails for $125 has become an emblem not only of Knicks team spirit but of hope and community. Huge portions of the nation rallied behind this little accessory.<\/p>\n

\u201cNew York City means so much to Karl and me, so being able to lend a piece of history\u2014and luck\u2014back to the city is truly an honor,\u201d said Woods. \u201cThe Guggenheim is one of my favorite places, and I never imagined that something I designed would one day be on view at the museum. So many of us are still in shock over the Knicks\u2019 historic run, and seeing the lucky bag at the Guggenheim somehow makes it all feel real.\u201d<\/p>\n

The bag will sit in a museum that also holds works by Andy Warhol, Vasily Kandinsky, and Franz Marc, elevating itself to cultural icon. \u201cPeople have always found meaning in objects that embody profound cultural moments, and they often go to great lengths to see them. That is one reason museums exist,\u201d Westermann. \u201cLike art, basketball at the stratospheric level of the Knicks thrives on discipline, creativity, and teamwork\u2014and on bringing people together. Just think about it\u2014this bag is the first ever clutch that actually became clutch.\u201d The power of fashion is real.<\/p>\n
