What World Cup? US celebrities get their fashion kicks from the Knicks

The World Cup may have kicked off in the US this week, but America’s attention is focused on a different sport: basketball. The NBA finals could end this weekend, with the New York Knicks potentially becoming champions for the first time since 1973. And with Knicks fever comes fan style, especially courtside, where celebrities have been showing their support in different ways.

For Wednesday’s Game 4, won by the Knicks, Taylor Swift and Este and Alana Haim all wore T-shirts in the blue and orange of the Knicks with their own Knicks-related pop culture pun: Swift’s read "Stevie Knicks", while Este’s said "Knickeback" and Alana’s read "Knickole Kidman".

This was not shop merch. Vogue reported that Alana had made the T-shirts herself. Other celebrities went less homemade. Timothée Chalamet, a long-term Knicks fan, has been wearing custom looks from the brand Chrome Hearts, including a Knicks orange tracksuit and double denim with orange touches, worn in tandem with his partner, Kylie Jenner.
