Caitlin Clark hit the WNBA draft red carpet in style.

The 2024 No. 1 draft pick, 22, sported a satin Prada mini skirt and jacket set along with a silver, sparkling tube top.

She paired the look with a pair of sleek sunglasses, some pointed black pumps, and a black Prada purse.

Clark made history once again on Monday night’s carpet becoming the first athlete Prada has dressed — male or female — for the NBA or WNBA Draft.

“[it’s] pretty special,” Clark told the WNBA in a video shared on their Instagram Stories.

The former Iowa Hawkeye, who closed out her record-breaking college career with 3,951 points scored, was picked up by the Indiana Fever.

“I got a little anxious there before the pick,” she told ESPN’s Holly Rowe shortly after the draft.

“I dreamed of this moment since I was in second grade, and it’s taken a lot of hard work, a lot of ups and downs, but more than anything, just trying to soak it in.”

Clark notably made it all the way to 2024 NCAA championship game with the Hawkeyes — their second appearance during her tenure — where the team fell in second place to the South Carolina’s Gamecocks.

“It’s really hard to win these things. I think I probably know that better than most people by now,” Clark said on Instagram after the loss on April 7.

“To be so close twice, it definitely hurts. But at the same time, we were right there. We battled. We took down some really great teams to get back to this point and [did] something that’s really hard to do.”

During the March Madness 2024 tournament, she broke the NCAA Division 1 all-time leading scoring record among men and women with 3,686 career points in the March 3 Game versus the Ohio State Buckeyes.

The basketball star is currently dating fellow Iowa alum, Connor McCaffery.

The couple first became Instagram official in August 2023.
