Angel Reese celebrates her 22nd birthday by attending the Met Gala and also hint about her new found love.

Angel Reese celebrated her 22nd birthday in style – literally.

Reese, the No. 7 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA draft, traveled to New York to attend the Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday.

The Chicago Sky rookie was among a host of sports stars at the glamourous event that attracts celebrities and fashion icons from all over the world.

Reese wore a 16Arlington by Marco Capaldo custom gown. The sparkly mint-green dress featured a plunging neckline and a sheer, floor-length skirt with feather details around the waist.

“I feel beautiful, and I feel sexy,” Reese told Women’s Wear Daily, adding, “I’m just excited to see everyone’s outfits. Everyone looks amazing in here. Being here on my 22nd birthday is amazing.”

Reese, who was known as the “Bayou Barbie” during her time at LSU when she led the Tigers to the 2023 NCAA championship, has become a style icon already. She displayed her fashion sense in last month’s draft. She announced her decision to turn pro in a photoshoot and story for Vogue, telling the magazine, “I didn’t want anything to be basic.”
