Simone Biles may be the most decorated gymnast in history, but in 2025, she’s also cementing herself as a certified fashion powerhouse. From the vibrant red carpet of the Met Gala to the iconic grounds of Churchill Downs, Biles has taken style to new heights merging elegance with bold statements. At the 2025 Kentucky Derby, she turned heads not once but twice: first at the Barnstable Brown Gala in a sleek cream strapless mini-dress with opera gloves and a feathered fascinator, then again at the Derby itself, twinning with husband Jonathan Owens in a coordinated ensemble that had the cameras flashing nonstop.
Just days earlier, she embraced the Met Gala’s “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” theme in a sculptural Harbison Studio creation. Each look more daring than the last. It’s no surprise, then, that Simone’s fashion choices have become the stuff of legend and now, fans got the kind of surprise announcement that lit up social media. As part of a long-anticipated drop, a piece from an exclusive Summer 2025 collection, retailing at a jaw-dropping $6,000 had been officially sold out. Yes, the so-called “impossible dream” of owning one of those has become even more meaningful, as Simone herself stepped forward with a personal message.
Simone Biles took to her Instagram stories posting, “making the impossible possible. thanks for making my denim dreams come true @thecoveted___,” alongside a striking image of her latest fashion triumph. In the photo, she’s seen holding a luxuriously quilted black denim handbag with bold gold hardware. A piece that looks like it leaped straight out of a couture dream. Styled to perfection with golden mesh heels and gold-accented rings, Simone’s look wasn’t just fashionable, it was intentional. This wasn’t just about a bag. it was about the power of persistence and self-expression through style. For fans who’ve been tracking her evolving fashion story, it was another jaw-dropping entry in what feels like a luxury playbook in the making.
Biles has been on a designer streak this spring, giving fans front-row access to her jaw-dropping accessories. Back in April, she stunned on a date night with husband Jonathan Owens, showing off a playful, sporty-chic vibe ahead of the Rockets vs. Thunder game. That outing included a mirror selfie that highlighted not just her outfit, but her undeniable bag game. Fast forward to May 13, and Biles had the internet buzzing chasing the same elusive Chanel 25 Small Handbag, at that time valued at $5,500. She posted a crisp shot of the bag to her Instagram Stories, its sleek form practically glowing through the screen. While others struggled to track it down, Simone had already snagged it, proving once again that when she wants something whether it’s Olympic gold or high fashion, she finds a way to stick the landing.
Her love affair with handbags didn’t stop there. Just days earlier, she was spotted in an oversized white Balenciaga jean jacket paired with black leather knee-high boots. A look finished off with a polished black Hermès Kelly bag, complete with gleaming palladium hardware. A symbol of timeless luxury, the Hermès moment oozed confidence and cool. With every post, Biles makes one thing crystal clear: she’s not just collecting historic scores and gold medals. She’s curating a fashion legacy, one iconic accessory at a time.
From Chanel cravings to couture couple goals
Two years ago, Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens exchanged vows in a romantic Cabo ceremony and this May 6, they’re celebrating that love with a picture-perfect parade of public appearances. Just days before their anniversary, the couple stunned at the Kentucky Derby in coordinated lavender ensembles. Then came the MET Gala, where they graced the carpet hand in hand, exuding chemistry and class. For Simone, moments like these are extra special, especially with the challenges of a long-distance relationship.
But it hasn’t all been glam and gala prep, there’s been a touch of fashion drama too. In a candid and utterly relatable moment, Biles had the internet on the lookout after she posted a plea, “I need itttt… anyone know/have a chanel rep?” Her target? The elusive Chanel 25, a piece of quiet luxury from the Spring-Summer 2025 Ready-to-Wear collection. As she gushed on Threads, “the chanel 25 is sooooo cute ughhh.” While the bag doesn’t come with superpowers, it certainly cast a spell on Simone and apparently, she wasn’t the only one.
The brand’s own tagline promised a vision of movement, freedom, and bold femininity, “The Spring-Summer 2025 Ready-to-Wear collection is an ode to movement and freedom. Boldly reinterpreted, the codes of the House are the signature of a free and confident allure.” Sounds exactly like the kind of energy Simone brings everywhere she goes. What started as a luxury wishlist turned into a full-circle moment. Simone finally secured the coveted Chanel 25, closing the loop on a story that’s about more than fashion.
