Victor Wembanyama’s Sister Eve Celebrates in Plunging Black Suit and Heels for NBA Draft 2023 Overall Pick Ceremony

Victor Wembanyama’s sister Eve attended the 2023 NBA Draft to cheer on her younger basketball star brother tonight at the Barclays Center in New York. The brother-sister duo also attended with their brother Oscar and their father Felix and mother Elodie de Fautereau.

During the starry ceremony, Eve appeared to slip into something dressy, donning a striking black suit paired with a gold statement necklace and a bold bright red lip. The look was easy and sophisticated, elevated by the accessories she chose to wear.

Prior to the occasion, Eve posted a sneak peek of a more casual look to her Instagram Story along with a sleepy emoji. The athlete wore a black long-sleeve sweater with black satin trousers in a tailored style. Additionally, she carried a rectangular snakeskin clutch that offered her all-black look a whimsical twist.

Although it was hard to see what footwear she was wearing for both looks, it’s likely the 21-year-old basketball player stuck to the classics, opting for a pair of patent leather pointed-toe pumps in a style that matched her wardrobe. On less formal occasions, Eve is partial to strappy sandals and a wide range of New Balance and Nike sneakers.
