Breanna Stewart, a two-time WNBA champion and three-time Olympic gold medalist, has dominated on the court since making her league debut in 2016. That year, she was selected as the No. 1 draft pick, landing with the Seattle Storm and later named Rookie of the Year.

As a forward for the New York Liberty, the 30-year-old continues to redefine greatness, both athletically and where her style is concerned. Off the court, the mom of two, who shares her kids Ruby and Theo with wife Marta Xargay, has cemented herself as a fashion icon. Partnering with PUMA, she launched the Stewie 1 in 2022, becoming the first WNBA player in over a decade to have her own signature shoe.

But her phenomenal style goes far beyond footwear. Stewart’s pre-game tunnel walks have become a runway of their own, and we’re constantly in awe of the crisp and sporty looks she puts together, often with the help of stylist Courtney Mays. From high-end designer suits to edgy street style ensembles, here are some of our favorite fashion moments from the one-time SI Swimsuit model.

When in doubt, a floral matching set will always be super cute. We love the casual, boxy, effortless springtime vibes of this one, especially with the bright blue loafers.
