Due to the immense fame Angel Reese has gained over the past two years, from winning the national championship with LSU in 2023 to being drafted 7th overall by the Chicago Sky in this year’s WNBA Draft, the most watched in history, she is now frequently invited to celebrity events, charity galas, and social events where she needs to dress in designer clothes. She discussed this topic on the latest episode of her podcast “Unapologetically”, which was hosted by fashion stylist Law Roach.
Reese’s Custom Fashion Struggles with Her Butt
In the episode, Reese told Roach that it’s a big problem for her to wear clothes that aren’t custom-made for her, a “famous people problem,” as she calls it. She explained, “Like if I don’t get it made, like stretchy is the best thing for me because I have a butt, I have a butt and my legs are long.” While there are clothes available for people with her body type, she admitted that it can be a challenge for high-profile events where tight-fitting clothes are expected. But as she said, that’s part of the deal.
The good news is that she shared this concern with Roach, and as a stylist, he likely took note and will prepare a dress just the way Reese likes it for her next big event. With Reese’s growing fame, it’s clear that we’ll be seeing more of her at these types of events. Besides the fact that she loves to cause controversy and be in the spotlight, that’s his personality since her College days.
Reese also continues to grow her social media following, with 4.5 million followers on Instagram and 4.8 million on TikTok, in addition to her videos surpassing 100 million likes. Her podcast, which releases a new episode every Thursday, has also gained a following in its first few months, especially with rotating celebrity guests like Shaquille O’Neal, Dwayne Wade, Kayla Nicole (Travis Kelce’s ex) and Polo G. More celebrities are likely to join as Reese’s fame and success continue to grow.

How Tyler Marsh Can Shape Reese’s Game
Reese is already training for next season, when she will have a new coach as the Chicago Sky recently signed Tyler Marsh to a multi-year coaching contract. Marsh spent the last three seasons as an assistant coach in Las Vegas, leading the Aces’ player development efforts as the team won back-to-back titles in 2022-23.
With Marsh having worked with 3-time WNBA MVPA’ja Wilson for several years, Reese’s game and training, with an emphasis on continuing to perfect her skills, could be similar to A’ja’s style, especially due to their similar size and physical attributes. Reese knows this and will take full advantage of everything Marsh has learned from and taught to Wilson. The future looks bright for Reese and Kamila Cardoso, who will be key players in the team’s offense next year.
Chicago Sky’s new head coach, Tyler Marsh, refers to Kamilla Cardoso and Angel Reese as the “cornerstone” of the Sky’s franchise.
