This Met Gala is filled with pro athletes. Dressing them is a unique challenge
<!--> When Brittney Griner became the first WNBA player to attend the Met Gala in 2023, just months after being released from a Russian prison in a high-profile prisoner swap, she looked effortlessly cool and chic in a custom-made champagne-colored Calvin Klein suit.Behind the look was celebrity stylist Courtney Mays, who has dressed some of sports' biggest stars for more than a decade.
