7 Outfits From Netflix's Running Point We're Obsessed With

Netflix's "Running Point" keeps inspiring us fashion-wise. The show has shot 3-pointers since its February 2025 premiere, but with its second season, it has soared to new heights. Inspired by Jeannie Buss, CEO of the Los Angeles Lakers, the show follows former party girl Isla Gordon (Kate Hudson) as she's put in charge of her family's Los Angeles basketball team after her brother steps down following a scandal. Now, Gordon has to prove to herself and everyone around her that she has what it takes to take the team to the top — with the help of her best friend, Ali Lee (Brenda Song). With a star-studded cast and underdog story, it's no wonder why viewers have gravitated toward the series. But what has really caught our attention are the fabulous outfits in the show.

We're obsessed with the fashion in "Running Point." The looks, curated by Salvador Pérez Jr., are a blend of a good ol' corporate uniform with sleek silhouettes and layering that wear just as well at happy hour. Hudson, a celeb who inherited her mother's famous style, also tapped her personal stylist Sophie Lopez to produce a wardrobe that showcased her character's growth. "We just sort of really wanted to get the evolution of her trying to figure out what her looks are ... What she's becoming needed that arc," she told People in February 2025. While these outfits scream office chic for TV, some may need a tweak or two in real life to avoid the dreaded dress code violation.

In the pilot episode "New Coach Who Dis," Isla Gordon wore a matching black leather vest and trouser set by Helmut Lang. But what took this set from club night to boardroom was the layered off-white turtleneck that screams equal parts serious and stylish. According to costume designer Salvador Perez, this was one of the perfect looks to kick off the show, as Kate Hudson tends to choose more leather pieces. "It's just what Kate gravitates to, because, I have to say, there was a lot more Kate Hudson than Jeannie Buss in Isla," he told Whatever Nevermind in March 2025.

What do Blair Waldorf, Chanel Oberlin, and Ali Lee all have in common? They all look darling in tweed. In season 2, episode 6, Lee wore a navy blue Alice + Olivia cropped tweed jacket with a white button-down underneath, and a pair of black tailored shorts. Lee often wore tweed throughout the first two seasons, whether a standalone piece or a full set, but this outfit perfectly showcased the character's personality. The sleek tailoring of the jacket and shorts encompasses her fierce, no-nonsense, business-oriented attitude, which complements Gordon's fun-loving spirit throughout the show.

Bring out the cardigan, because this outfit may need some coverage. Once again, Isla Gordon is wearing her leather trousers (Hudson really loves her leather), but this time they're paired with a gray one-shoulder waistcoat by Acne Studios. Keeping in theme with Gordon's early days, the look is stylish and playful, but not something that's ready for the office. Salvador Perez Jr. told Whatever Nevermind he wouldn't choose this top for the character in later episodes, as her arc develops.

In season 1, episode 9, "The Playoff," Ali Lee stepped out in a Paige Black Belted Moto leather mini skirt paired with a black basic turtleneck for a look that feels equal parts polished and cool. The black monochromatic color story perfectly captured the impact of power dressing, as the color expressed a serious and sophisticated tone. On the other hand, the mix of textures, specifically the leather skirt, screamed edgy yet timeless – proving that some of the most impactful outfits are the simplest.

Isla Gordon embodied TikTok's somewhat controversial "Office Siren" trend in season 1 episode 9, "The Playoffs." Before going into full suit mode, she wore one more cheeky outfit featuring a black bustier top – a piece people actually found attractive in the '80s. She paired it with a matching black pencil skirt, which immediately sounds like an HR violation. However, with a crisp white button-down layered underneath, the look feels polished, even if she's in the middle of a paintball fight with her brothers.

As Isla Gordon bloomed into her true manager era, she had the statement pieces to match. She wore several suits throughout the series; some were neutral, designed by Favorite Daughter, but others were bold, power colors — a complete 180 from the staple gray, navy, and black suits that have been ingrained in workplace culture. The power suits are a testament to Gordon's driven and sharp-witted yet fierce attitude. As Kate Hudson explained to People in 2025, "Isla grew up very wealthy in Los Angeles. She definitely likes to shop. She's not wearing the same suit twice."

Cue Carly Simon's "You're So Vain." In season 1, episode 5, "Beshert," Isla Gordon and fiancé Lev Levenson (Max Greenfield) held their long-awaited engagement party. While planning the party, she struggled to find the perfect dress until Law Roach appeared and encouraged her to choose an ivory Galvan halter-neck dress. The dress looks very similar to one of the most iconic on-screen dress moments of all time, the iconic silk yellow dress from "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days." This piece was a sweet nod to the beloved rom-com starring Kate Hudson. Needless to say, pairing this dress with a blowout and minimal jewelry was the best way of updating the look in 2026.
