Attract: Is there a magnificence pattern that you simply want would go away?
Bueckers: That is so exhausting as a result of all people has their very own issues that they like to do. And personally I may not do it, nevertheless it’s their factor. Similar to some individuals wouldn’t dye their hair pink, however I do. That is how I specific myself. I really feel like all people expresses themselves in their very own approach, and who am I to evaluate?
Attract: You appear to additionally love expressing your self via trend. Would you slightly match your glam to your match or match your match to your glam?
Bueckers: I normally have my outfit picked first after which primarily based on that—how my shirt is wanting or how if I’ve a collar or not—then I do my hair. Ought to I put it up or ought to I put it down? Make-up-wise, I’ve at all times gone with the pure look. I have never actually gone an excessive amount of outdoors of that. However the match first after which the glam is how I do it.
Attract: Is there anybody who has influenced your relationship with trend and sweetness on or off the court docket?
Bueckers: For me it is [incredible] to see how a lot the WNBA has actually embraced the style side. The stroll that you simply do earlier than the sport—the tunnel matches—the WNBA has not shied away from it. They actually embraced [players] expressing themselves in the best way that they stroll, and in what they put on. Diamond DeShields [who plays for Chicago Sky] is a large trend inspo—and Arike Ogunbowale [of the Dallas Wings] and Natasha Cloud [of the Phoenix Mercury].
On the boys’s facet it is Kyle Kuzma [who plays for the Washington Wizards] and Russell Westbrook [of the Denver Nuggets] as a result of they put on issues that folks on Twitter are going to clown them for… however they’re comfy with being uncomfortable, attempting various things and never essentially going with the developments and what all people [else is doing]. They really feel assured sufficient to place it on the market they usually do not care about different individuals’s opinions. They do not care about getting judged. That is one thing that I wish to embody.
So [in general] I might say I’m impressed by the people who find themselves carefree and do and put on what they need and do not care about anyone judging them or anyone else’s opinions.
