In his particular professional sports-fan fashion, Mamdani donned a Josh Hart jersey under his suit jacket and over his shirt and tie, but it was Duwaji’s look that channeled the DIY spirit of downtown New York. She wore a cascading upcycled Knicks T-shirt dress by 2026 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund finalist Miss Claire Sullivan layered over a black skirt with orange pom-pom earrings to match.

Sullivan is no stranger to scrappy but stylish designs—nor is she new to the Knicks fandom and their indefatigable attitude. (Sullivan brought this exact polished-punk attitude to her time as a co-creative director of the New York underground brand Vaquera.) Naturally, Duwaji’s dress came from the spur-of-the-moment energy that mirrored last weekend’s riotous revelry. “My entire family is from New York, but have all since moved away, and everyone was texting me about wanting Knicks shirts,” Sullivan tells Vogue. “I wasn’t able to go to any of the street vendors myself, so my friends helped me source. When I saw how many colors there were, I was inspired to get one in every color and turn them into a dress.”
