The Knicks Won by 37 Points, But Kylie Jenner's Chanel Tote Was the Real Winner of the Eastern Conference Finals
Players, you did great too.
It's been an exciting few days for fans of the New York Knicks with the storied team going off in the playoffs and finalizing a sweep of the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals last night to send it to its first NBA Finals in 27 years. Clearly, the players remember what happened last year—when they lost in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals to the Indiana Pacers—and came prepared to right that wrong in dominant fashion. It was a team effort, and six players scored in double digits, resulting in a whopping 37-point triumph inside the Cavs' home gym.
I would hate to take away from the team's victory, but as a fashion person, it's my duty to point something out. Sure, the Knicks may have prevailed on the court—quite glaringly, I might add—but the real winner of the Eastern Conference Finals sat a few steps away from the actual basketball action. I am indeed talking about Kylie Jenner's black crocodile Chanel tote, which the A-lister—sat beside her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet—wore with a vintage Knicks T-shirt, a leather jacket, Levi's jeans, and a pair of heeled thong sandals.
Kylie Jenner's Courtside Look
On Kylie Jenner: Chanel bag; Levi's jeans; The Row shoes
The bag designed by the French house's creative director, Matthieu Blazy, is one of many that have gone viral since Blazy's debut back in October. Called the Small Shopping Bag, it is currently available in two versions: a mint option made of crocodile-embossed calfskin and a classic calfskin leather option in rich burgundy. They retail for $7300 and $7000, respectively. Naturally, Jenner's isn't available, at least not yet. A new fuchsia option is on its way for fall/winter 2026, according to the runway show, but so far, black hasn't hit the runway. Leave it to her, though, to snag an exclusive colorway and wear it casually with a graphic tee and jeans for a basketball game—iconic.
Prepare for more courtside looks starting on June 3, which is when the Knicks will take on either the San Antonio Spurs or the Oklahoma City Thunder, a game that Jenner and Chalamet will no doubt be attending.
