Meticulously preparing outfits for Week 1, the players are beginning to expand their tunnel looks to include intentionally selected and non-wearable items. From canned beverages to signature sneaker announcements, players can use these &#8216;accessories&#8217; to communicate messages outside their personal style. 
 
No object spotted in the tunnel is ever as random as it seems; multiple players from this outfit round-up enhanced their levels of color coordination with whatever objects they held in their hands. While players have traditionally worn a head-to-toe outfit from their sportswear sponsor, the emergence of objects as accessories also proposes new ways for players to represent brands. Scroll below to see how players take a &#8216;hands-on&#8217; approach to their outfits of Week 1.

While Las Vegas Aces&#8217; Kierstan Bell has worn rainbow-colored pants, this is the first time she has coordinated her outfit to her beverage. The ice of her matcha-colored drink is like her subtle, icy diamond jewelry. How did she get the drink&#8217;s fruit topper to perfectly match the orange panels of her Prada America&#8217;s Cup Sneakers?

Cameron Brink, a recent addition to the Sparks, keeps her style consistent with matching sets and a tough leather vibe. Although her canned beverage doesn&#8217;t match the Diesel 1DR bag, Brink transforms this in-hand accessory into a subtle, sponsored shout-out to Optimum Nutrition.

Skylar Diggins-Smith adds royal blue to her wardrobe while continuing two of her style relationships: a partnership with PUMA HOOPS and working with stylist <a href="https://www.instagram.com/kristine__31/">Kristine Anigwe</a>. Her vest and hat are from the PUMA x Noah collaboration, which visually matches the potential food delivery bag she&#8217;s carrying.

<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-184767 aligncenter" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2024/05/MHA.png" alt="" width="427" height="640" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2024/05/MHA.png 427w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2024/05/MHA-200x300.png 200w" sizes="(max-width: 427px) 100vw, 427px" />
Myisha Hines-Allen proudly wears a full outfit from <a href="https://www.instagram.com/communitylovehub/">Community Love Hub</a>, a Black—and veteran-owned clothing brand from the DMV. Featuring fresh Air Force 1s, her look is panda-inspired and black and white. By holding black flip-flops, Hines-Allen reverses the tradition of athletes showing up in their slides and holding their sneakers. 
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/sabrina_i/">Sabrina Ionescu</a>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-184768 aligncenter" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2024/05/Sab.png" alt="" width="427" height="640" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2024/05/Sab.png 427w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2024/05/Sab-200x300.png 200w" sizes="(max-width: 427px) 100vw, 427px" />
Following famous athlete announcements, Sabrina Ionescu enters the tunnel to announce her second signature sneaker with Nike. Instead of visual coordination, perhaps her sparkly outfit connects to the storytelling behind the new purple colorway: the denim-covered denim reflects how she&#8217;s been able to shatter glass ceilings. 
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/ladylynn22_">Jordan Horston</a> 
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-184769 aligncenter" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2024/05/Horston.png" alt="" width="512" height="640" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2024/05/Horston.png 512w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2024/05/Horston-240x300.png 240w" sizes="(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px" />
Jordan Horston looks extra fly with aviator-inspired Versace sunglasses and an MCM backpack a day before her birthday. Her oversized muscle T-shirt matches the dark Space Gray of her Apple Airpods Max headphones, an ever-popular pregame accessory. Does the outfit attract attention or does it block out distractions?

In anticipation of the Commissioner&#8217;s Cup, which took place earlier this week, the WNBA players raised the energy through their pre-game outfits. While the league&#8217;s fans saw more simple combinations at the beginning of the summer, this week featured players opting for bolder, brighter colors in outfits with unconventional choices.
Zooming into the players’ footwear, Jasmine Thomas makes a strong case for oversized cowboy boots and NaLyssa Smith continues her affinity for streetwear with some designer kicks. There were fewer heels spotted in these pre-game outfits, which hints at the cooling temperatures at this point of the season. While certain players kept their outfits limited to a few apparel pieces, they brought a heightened sense of style through their highly intentional selections.  
There isn&#8217;t a singular theme that defines this edition of &#8220;The W in Designer,&#8221; as this group of players expresses themselves in a wide range of aesthetics. The excitement around the Commissioner&#8217;s Cup creates a subconscious style division between the players in the Eastern Conference and Western Conference&#8211; East Coast players wear more serious, outwardly tough outfits while West Coast players explore colorful and soft silhouettes. While previous weeks of this season included players in less colorful outfits, this week also includes two players in a rainbow array of clothing.  
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-180121" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_JTHOMAS.png" alt="" width="500" height="900" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_JTHOMAS.png 500w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_JTHOMAS-167x300.png 167w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" />
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/jaszthomas">Jasmine Thomas</a> 
This isn&#8217;t the first time the league has seen Los Angeles Sparks player Jasmine Thomas wear a pair of bold cowboy boots to a game, and it probably won&#8217;t be the last. In this outfit, she matches her shiny, white boots to a slim, white leather purse. Thomas also wears a pale mint-colored dress with a thin pair of gold hoops and a small gold heart-shaped necklace. Going for an ultra-sweet pre-game look, Thomas creates an interesting contrast to her fierce on-court presence. 
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-180122" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_CDANGER.png" alt="" width="500" height="900" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_CDANGER.png 500w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_CDANGER-167x300.png 167w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" />
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/crystaldangerfield5/">Crystal Dangerfield</a>
Dallas Wings player Crystal Dangerfield has waited until this moment in the season to channel her inner Michael Jordan energy. She pays tribute to the extraordinary player through a black Jordan Brand graphic T-shirt, which is coordinated with her red and black Jordan Brand sneakers. Adding a streetwear-inspired edge to her athletic outfit, she wears a pair of denim pants with large, stacked cargo pockets. Dangerfield also carries a super rare pair of Air Jordan Luka 1 basketball sneakers in a pink colorway. 
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-180123" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_KMitch.png" alt="" width="500" height="900" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_KMitch.png 500w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_KMitch-167x300.png 167w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" />
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/kelz_hoop/">Kelsey Mitchell</a> 
At first glance, it might be tricky to spot the skills that it takes to wear Indiana Fever player Kelsey Mitchell&#8217;s pregame outfit. All eyes are drawn to an oversized Bob Marley zip-up hoodie, which is skillfully paired with a Jumbo GG Belt Bag from Gucci. To match the red and white colors of her outfit, she also wears a pair of Air Jordan sneakers and Nike socks with a repeating logo pattern. Mitchell proves that the most simple outfits can be the most visually impactful. 
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-180124" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_KBELL.png" alt="" width="500" height="900" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_KBELL.png 500w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_KBELL-167x300.png 167w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" />
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/kb1official_/">Kierstan Bell</a> 
Las Vegas Aces player Kierstan Bell takes style notes from other top athletes in this colorful, streetwear-heavy outfit. She wears a Marni striped button-up cardigan in a bold assortment of rainbow colors that matches the gradient distressing on her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/whodecideswar/">Who Decides War</a> jeans. Keeping the rest of her look simple, she accessorizes with a simple, blinged-out necklace and a pair of coordinating yellow-tinted sunglasses. 
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-180125" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_BSYKES.png" alt="" width="500" height="900" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_BSYKES.png 500w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_BSYKES-167x300.png 167w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" />
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/brittbundlez/">Brittney Sykes</a>
Washington Mystics player Brittney Sykes is approaching the end of the season by elevating her signature, streetwear-inspired style. Working with stylist <a href="https://www.instagram.com/looksbylex__/">Lex</a>, Sykes wears a grungy, distressed sweater vest with a skeleton print. She pairs her top with a pair of washed gray cargo pants from <a href="https://www.instagram.com/valelives/">Vale Forever</a> and a pair of Nike SB Dunk Low sneakers in a Raygun Tie-Dye colorway. While hats have become a pregame staple for Sykes, this week she wears a simple trucker with a &#8220;LOVE&#8221; message from <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sykes24serenity/">Sykes Serenity</a>. 
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-180126" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_ONELSON.png" alt="" width="500" height="900" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_ONELSON.png 500w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_ONELSON-167x300.png 167w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" />
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/olivianelson_17/">Olivia Nelson-Ododa</a>
Bringing a chic style to her games with the Connecticut Sun, Olivia Nelson-Ododa ends the summer with this dreamy outfit. Working with stylist and player <a href="https://www.instagram.com/kristine__31/">Kristine Anigwe</a> on other looks during the season, this outfit interprets a neutral color palette into a brown bustier top with a gold, charmed chain detail and a pair of cropped khaki pants. For retro-inspired flair, Nelson-Ododa finishes this look with a pair of cat-eye-shaped sunglasses and simple, pointed black heels. 
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-180127" src="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_NSMITH.png" alt="" width="500" height="900" srcset="https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_NSMITH.png 500w, https://cdn.wnba.com/sites/4/2023/08/W11_NSMITH-167x300.png 167w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" />
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/nalyssasmith/">NaLyssa Smith 
</a>Bringing another colorful gradient outfit to her game with the Indiana Fever, NaLyssa Smith makes bright colors look badass. She wears a Brushed Gradient Sweater from <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mnml.la">mnml</a>, which has been popular with players this season, and a pair of distressed denim shorts with an “ICE CREAM” logo application. The PUMA basketball athlete completes her look with a pair of Out of Office Low Top Sneakers in a yellow and white colorway from Off-White and a Chrome Hearts trucker hat.
