Michael Jordan’s Wife Yvette Prieto Goes Wild for Animal Prints & Soaring Pumps Over the Years

Yvette Prieto‘s sleek style has transcended the 2000s — and today, we’re taking a look back at her sharpest ensembles over the years.

Prieto’s sharp aesthetic hinges on versatile basics, including printed dresses in muted colors, light tops and jeans — as seen on outings with basketball star husband Michael Jordan. On the footwear front, her styles are additionally versatile with a slick finish, ranging from flat buckled sandals to black pointed-toe pumps — one of her go-to styles for the red carpet. However, she can also step out in daring sets of bold high heels, ranging from leopard-print booties to slick mesh stilettos.

The socialite’s attire frequently includes a range of features that have become hallmarks of her dressing mannerisms over time, including:

  • Mini and knee-length dresses in neutral and jewel tones
  • Pointed-toe pumps and open-toed sandals with smooth nude or black uppers
  • Trendy high-heeled sandals or boots crafted with allover patterns or mesh textures
