Hailey Bieber, like the rest of New York City, is basking in the afterglow of the Knicks’ Saturday night NBA finals win—their first since 1973. But the thing is, Hailey Bieber isn’t in New York. Knicks Fever, it seems, has reached the opposite coast.
Yesterday Bieber grabbed frozen yogurt in Los Angeles, showing her New York pride without breaking out the royal blue and orange. Instead, she sported an ecru pullover emblazoned with “NYC” across the chest. (Beneath, it “New York” was repeated in a row punctuated by little apples.) The vintage sweatshirt seems to hail from Etsy shop Vintage6ix, which dates it back to the ’90s.
Bieber was joined by her husband, Justin, who also went the graphic route—but instead of repping NYC, Justin wore a shredded white T-shirt baring Betty Boop caught in a Marilyn moment, her scarlet skirt flying.

BACKGRID USABieber is no stranger to loud-and-proud fan style. For Game 4 last Wednesday—when the Knicks bested the Spurs 107–106—the Rhode founder opted for a blue T-shirt that read: “Knicks: New York’s Greatest Thrill.”
Yesterday’s styling was remarkably similar to her Madison Square Garden ’fit: on both occasions, Bieber wore her spirited top with blue, straight-legged jeans and thong sandals. The key distinction? In New York, she opted for heeled shoes, while yesterday she chose flat A. Emery flip-flops. Now that’s how to show Knicks pride in Lakers land—just LA-ify the outfit with a pair of slouchy jeans and unbothered flip-flops.
