Zohran Mamdani’s wife Rama Duwaji wears high-fashion merch dress to Knicks parade
New York’s first lady came dressed for the Knicks.
Rama Duwaji took the stage at Thursday’s Knicks parade in a custom dress made from bootleg NBA Finals merch tees, courtesy of downtown designer Miss Claire Sullivan.
The one-shoulder design was stitched together from white, orange and blue T-shirts, which Sullivan tucked, stitched and tied to create an asymmetrical silhouette.
Duwaji, 28, layered the piece over a black midi skirt and finished the look with layered gold necklaces, orange puff-ball earrings and black Nike Air Rift sneakers.
Sullivan, whose client list also includes Lady Gaga, Rosalía and Addison Rae, shared a version of the look on Instagram earlier this week, styled with a layered white tulle tutu in place of the black skirt.
“Knicks in five 🏀💙 LFG NYC,” the designer captioned her post.
Her famous fans co-signed: Addison Rae wrote, “R u kidding,” while Lisa Rinna chimed in with, “So good!!!!” Ella Emhoff, the former second daughter of the United States, added, “Holy S—TTTTT.”
“My entire family is from New York, but have all since moved away, and everyone was texting me about wanting Knicks shirts,” Sullivan told 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.”
Sullivan wore the tutu version herself on Saturday to celebrate the Knicks’ 94-90 win over the San Antonio Spurs in Game 5.
Thursday’s parade appearance was one of Duwaji’s most public fashion moments since her husband, Mayor Zohran Mamdani, was inaugurated in January.
The Houston-born artist and animator became the city’s first Gen Z and first Muslim first lady earlier this year, and has largely kept a low profile while continuing her work in illustration and ceramics.
