Angel Reese takes it from the court to the beach.
The WNBA player made her debut at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in October and has now officially appeared in print as the face of the lingerie brand’s latest swimwear and beauty collection.
Throughout the image, the athlete lounges on a sandy beach in Barbados wearing a brown swimsuit and cover-up. And she also wears shiny golden bronze.
In some photos, she is covered in golden body paint in the setting sun.
“The theme is bronze. I’m all for bronze and sun. Being here in Barbados, the vibe is literally perfect,” Reese told Elle Magazine of the shoot.
The photo showcases the Invisible by Victoria’s Secret Strapless collection, featuring anti-slip grip technology and the new Bombshell Bronze Eau de Parfum.
“Basketball is going to stop at some point,” Reese said of his ever-expanding multi-hyphenated title, adding, “It’s important to have your own story and be able to control it.”
In September 2024, she started her podcast “Unapologetically Angel” which covers different topics each week depending on the guest.
“It’s important to have your own story and be able to control it,” she explained to Elle, continuing, “I understand how it feels to be on the other side and have the media against you. So it was important to me to have a comfortable, open space for guests to come, but also to have my own platform.”
This fall, the 23-year-old made history as the first professional athlete to appear on the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
“Stepping into my dream…I finally got my wings,” she wrote on Instagram at the time.
