LSU head coach Kim Mulkey went with a shimmery purple look for her Sweet 16 gameday outfit.

SACRAMENTO — LSU head coach Kim Mulkey donned a glittery outfit for the Tigers’ Sweet 16 matchup against Duke on March 27. Mulkey arrived to scout the UCLA-Minnesota matchup in a purple pantsuit, covered in her signature sparkles and paired with a simple black undershirt and her Christian Louboutin red-bottom heels. The look was bold, polished and unmistakably her, adding another chapter to what has become a familiar story surrounding her sideline style.

Despite the attention, Mulkey insisted in a March 26 news conference that she is “not a fashionista. ” “I do good to be talked into wearing what I wear,” she said. “That was a thing that happened when I first got to Baton Rouge, got talked into doing it.

And it’s just kind of taken off. But I’m not a fashion person. " Fit Check ✔️ pic.
