The trade<\/a> deadline had us all in shambles. Dijonai Carrington moved to the Minnesota Lynx, Emma Meesseman to the New York Liberty, and Jay Sherrod was waived from the Liberty just to be picked up by her former rival team, the Lynx. All this moving around leaves the league in flux and, more importantly, the fashion in disarray, too.<\/p>\n

Imagine moving from breezy Minnesota to a hot New York summer? That’d call for a wardrobe restyle. But on the plus side, we reach new heights and inch closer to the playoffs, which means we might see an influx of players out on injury, slowly come back into the playing field. We’ve already had Cameron Brink’s status turned over; now we await Caitlin Clark’s<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But while we wait, we still want to turn our attention to this week’s tunnel fits. <\/a>And this week, they\u2019re all business.<\/p>\n

Olivia Nelson-Ododa \u2014 Connecticut Sun<\/p>\n

10s across the board \ud83c\udf1f<\/p>\n

There\u2019s been a lot of big talk surrounding the acquisition of the Connecticut Sun, and Olivia Nelson-Ododa looks like she\u2019s on the way to do the negotiation herself. Nelson-Ododa gets down to business in a form-fitting COS fluid double-breasted wool blazer paired with a crisp white button-down from Gap. She finishes the look with statement bottoms: Helmut Lang men\u2019s sheepskin leather shorts, and adds a pop of color with a fiery red BOTTEGA VENETA Andiamo small intrecciato leather clutch and custom shoes to match.<\/p>\n

Kahleah Copper \u2014 Phoenix Mercury<\/p>\n

Haven\u2019t you heard the news? Kahleah Copper just landed a spot on the League First Team All Fits, and trust, she\u2019s not riding the bench. Copper has consistently delivered fits, back to back, with a level of intention and style that makes it easy to forget this isn\u2019t her full-time job. She proves it yet again in what can only be described as a soft(er) punctual yet dandy fit. She wears a gingham double-zip track jacket and shorts from Open Air, paired with her often-worn and ever-controversial black Tabi loafers by Maison Margiela.<\/p>\n

Maddy Westbeld \u2014 Chicago Sky<\/p>\n

Westbeld is channeling that recurring nightmare where you show up to work in just your underwear\u2014only this time, it\u2019s intentional. And somehow, it works. Thanks to recent fashion references, the no-pants look is not only acceptable but deeply embedded into the zeitgeist of iconic fashion moments. Miu Miu\u2019s Spring\/Summer 2023 show made the agenda clear, reviving the no-pants moment while ushering in the return of the office siren aesthetic, which Westbeld meshes perfectly. And at least she threw on a jacket, it\u2019s practically enough for the Windy City.<\/p>\n

Following suit (figuratively) in a cropped trench, Angel Reese steps in to complete her teammate Maddy Westbeld\u2019s outfit\u2014with actual bottoms. A Burberry cotton mini skirt, to be exact. Reese leans into an early fall color palette with a pair of suede open-toe boots from… the TikTok Shop? In a recent gameday OOTD, she mentioned how tough it is to find size 12 shoes\u2014and apparently, TikTok came through. She finishes the look with a black Bottega Veneta Andiamo small intrecciato leather clutch and oversized Chanel sunglasses.<\/p>\n

Satou Sabally \u2014 Phoenix Mercury<\/p>\n

Two squads. One tunnel. All business. The @phoenixmercury and @indianafever just touched down fo<\/p>\n

You might\u2019ve assumed, based on the earlier picks, that there was a preppy or suit-and-tie agenda being pushed in the W\u2019 \u2014 but Satou Sabally creates a quiet rift in the monotony. While everyone else is dressing up, Sabally is dressing down, in the best way: a cool, ’90s Princess Diana kind of way. She wears the highly coveted Adidas Originals x Willy Chavarria poplin track top and matching bottoms. Chavarria, the Mexican-American designer behind the collab, recently debuted the now-iconic collection with Adidas not too long ago\u2014and Sabally managed to get her hands on a rare colorway.<\/p>\n

Tiffany Hayes \u2014 Golden State Valkyries<\/p>\n

Back to the suit and tie of it all. Hayes wears a school uniform inspired fit with a little edge, as she pairs an oversized blazer, teal tie, and tan pleated shorts with Tabi loafers. She would\u2019ve definitely been written up, but style is a sacrifice for all.<\/p>\n

Jonquel Jones\u2014 New York Liberty<\/p>\n

Lookin\u2019 like a walking trophy \ud83c\udfc6\ud83d\ude42_\u2195\ufe0f<\/p>\n

More suit, but no tie. And this time, pink! It can feel as simple as it\u2019s written, but it\u2019s always nice to see athletes in a pop of color because sometimes the show (the tunnel) is about you. Jonquel Jones comes out in her Easter Sunday best\u2014a salmon blazer, tailored pants, and a white tee. But the star of the show? The pink and blue mismatched Nike sneakers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Y\u2019all mind if the Valks throw a fit real quick@rakuten – Arrivals Courtesy of WNBA Instagram The trade…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":96639,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[73],"tags":[21393,3976,65292,99,5033,447,6533,65291,434,30341,30340],"class_list":{"0":"post-96638","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-wnba","8":"tag-athlete","9":"tag-fashion","10":"tag-nba-style","11":"tag-sports","12":"tag-style","13":"tag-trade","14":"tag-trade-deadline","15":"tag-tunnel-fits","16":"tag-wnba","17":"tag-wnba-fashion","18":"tag-wnba-style"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96638","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=96638"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96638\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/96639"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=96638"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=96638"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=96638"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
