Paige Bueckers' 'Side Quests Summer' continues as she made an appearance at New York Fashion Week over the weekend. The UConn guard was first spotted at the Tombogo Spring/Summer 2025 on Friday. She was accompanied by her Huskies teammate, Azzi Fudd.
On Sunday, Paige Bueckers attended the Off-White Spring/Summer 2025 collection. She opted for an all-black outfit embossed with pastel-colored butterflies.
Clips of Bueckers at the event are quickly going viral on TikTok with one fan commenting:
"She looks beautiful omg I can’t believe my eyes rn."
Here are a few more reactions:
This is Bueckers' first fashion week appearance and follows an eventful summer that saw her travel across the country attending WNBA games, throwing the first pitch at a Minnesota Twins baseball game, coaching high school players and more. She commented on her time at NYFW in an interview with Marie Claire on the "Who Decides War" show.
"I'm having a great time it's my first fashion week so I'm very excited to be here. It's all new to me. I'm learning," Paige said.
"Stepping outside my comfort zone, continue to find who I am in fashion, exploring my masculine side, my feminine side and just mixing both, and just continue to get comfortable in my own skin and finding different ways to express myself."
Paige Bueckers trains hard for her final college season
While enjoying and making the best of her first healthy off-season, Paige Bueckers has also been working out and training for her final college year with the UConn Huskies. She was photographed multiple times with popular NBA trainer, Chris Brickley, sweating it out in New York.
Bueckers was also seen at Storrs, taking a few practice sessions with her UConn team with new additions like Kaitlyn Chen, Morgan Cheli and Sarah Strong. On Saturday, Paige Bueckers took her training a step further as she was seen in the facility with Stephen Curry and Jaylen Brown.
In an interview from July, the UConn guard shared the areas of her game she has been working on during the off-season.
“It's playing a lot, playing a lot of 1-on-1,” Bueckers explained. “Offensively, defensively working on that, learning how to play with pace… Continue to work on little things like shooting with range, shooting more threes, and just continuing to improve.”
The upcoming season is Paige Bueckers' final chance to end UConn's nine-year NCAA championship drought.
