As the spotlight fades from the 2024 Olympics, it shifts straight to the runways of New York Fashion Week. And let’s be real – these athletes came to play.
This year, and most occasions, to be fair, Crystal Dunn and Midge Purce proved that style and serving looks is just another part to their game.
Forget scoring goals and winning gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics, they’re scoring front-row seats and turning runways into their own playing field.
Crystal Dunn in Sergio Hudson
Crystal Dunn is the definition of versatile on and off the pitch. A defensive powerhouse one moment, dominating the midfield the next – she brought that same energy to Sergio Hudson’s late-night runway. In a bold checked two-piece set, Dunn balanced power and finesse, much like her play on the field. The fit? Absolutely stunning. Seriously, we love it, Crystal.
Midge Purce at Carolina Herrera
Midge Purce is no stranger to being, well, the moment. And she was exactly that at Carolina Herrera’s Monday-morning show. Decked out in a silky, brown column dress, she stole the stage, for sure. This look screamed elegance with an edge, and those glasses give intellectual prowess, on the pitch and the runway. All this to say, Purce, can we be you? Thanks.
Athletes have always pushed the limits with their pre- and post-game fits. Now, the fashion world is catching on to what we already knew – these women don’t just run the pitch; they run the style game, too at one of the world's biggest runways.
In the age of social media, these athletes command attention, and incorporating them into fashion’s biggest week is a no-brainer.
Crystal Dunn and Midge Purce owned New York Fashion week, don’t deny it. With style moments like these, we can’t wait for more fits from our NWSL stars.
