This year’s WNBA rookie class has been making waves in the league, with standout players like Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, and Cameron Brink dominating headlines. However, amidst the buzz surrounding these rookies, Nika Mühl, the Seattle Storm’s second-round pick, has emerged as the Best Dressed rookie in the league.
Following in the footsteps of Sue Bird, Mühl has been turning heads with her impeccable sense of style. The 23-year-old, who made a name for herself at the University of Connecticut with her tenacious defense, has been making a statement both on and off the court.
At the WNBA draft, Mühl caught everyone’s attention with her stylish outfit, featuring pieces from Mugler, Gentle Monster, and Amina Muaddi. Her unique fashion choices, including a tasteful grill as a tribute to her hometown, have solidified her status as a trendsetter in the league.
Despite not receiving as much playing time as some of her fellow rookies, Mühl has continued to showcase her fashion sense with bold and creative tunnel fits. From pleated skirts to leather vests, she has proven that she can rock any look with confidence.
Born and raised in Croatia, Mühl’s journey to the WNBA was briefly interrupted by visa issues. However, she didn’t let that deter her spirit, as evidenced by her humorous APPROVED stamp T-shirt, which she wore to make light of the situation. With a background in fashion from her mother and graphic design skills from her father, Mühl has seamlessly blended her passions into her personal style.
