The stars attending the 2021 ESPY Awards — held on July 10, 2021, at The Rooftop at Pier 17 in New York City – are used to scoring home runs, match points, and gold medals. However, judging by the looks they turned out on the red carpet, they would also get “10s” across the board. The best and the brightest of the sports world (with a few entertainers thrown in – we see you, Nina Dobrev!) showed they can be just as gorgeous as any runway model ahead of the big event. Naomi Osaka, seen here during the 2021 ESPYs telecast, wore a Louis Vuitton ensemble and Ana Khouri jewelry. She was just one of many athletes to strut their stuff before the awards show. WWE’s Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair, Scripps National Spelling Bee winner (and basketball prodigy) Zaila Avant-garde, Chloe Kim, Deus & Mero (The Brand Is Strong) all showed off their drip and glamour. Click through the gallery to see some of the amazing looks from that night.

If Chloe Kim can teach Kane Brown to snowboard, does that mean he’ll put her on a track? Probably not.
