Kylie Jenner has always been full of surprises. She is a beauty mogul, mom of two, trendsetter, and now a New York Knicks superfan. Since cozying up with Timothée Chalamet, the 27-year-old reality star has been showing full-court press support for the Knicks on Instagram, in her wardrobe, and even in her underwear drawer.
The Kylie Cosmetics founder has gotten so serious about her Knicks fandom that it’s influencing her courtside appearances and her suitcase.

In a now-expired but well-documented Instagram Stories post, Jenner revealed a very curated, Knicks-themed travel wardrobe ahead of the team’s playoff game against the Indiana Pacers. We’re talking Knicks shirts, a matching cap, heels, and blue and orange lingerie.
Internet sleuths were quick to ID the set as a Fleur du Mal creation lacy “All Star” demi bra in “NY Blue” with coordinating cheeky undies.
But it’s not just about the clothes. Jenner’s Knicks fever is part of a bigger vibe shift, a full-on sports girlfriend rebrand that fans have noticed and are living for.
Kylie stirred the pot even further with a cheeky repost of a TikTok referencing Sex and the City. In the clip, Samantha famously reveals she only gets lucky if the Knicks win. “I don’t get laid unless the Knicks win,” she says, to which Kylie cheekily added zero commentary. Naturally, fans lost their minds over the rare insight into her relationship with Chalamet, 29, who’s been her quiet, stylish companion since they were first linked in April 2023.
Courtside Couture, Family Style
Kylie leaned hard into her role as basketball’s most fashionable +1. Her courtside appearances at Madison Square Garden were a staple of the playoffs. Most recently, she attended the May 29 Knicks vs. Pacers game with Chalamet and, earlier in the month, brought big sis Kendall Jenner along for a family double date.

Knicks Lose, But the Style Wins
Sadly for Jenner and Co., the Knicks couldn’t keep the streak alive. On May 31, they lost to the Pacers 125-108, knocking them out of the playoffs and giving OKC Thunder a ticket to the NBA Finals.

And whether you’re a Knicks fan or just here for the Chalamet thirst traps, Kylie’s made being a courtside girlfriend look like the most stylish sport of all.
