What do Diana Ross, Timothée Chalamet, Pope Leo XIV, and Jennifer Tilly have in common?
No, it’s not the setup to a punchline; all four were named to the New York Times’ 50 Most Stylish People of 2025 this week, with poker pro and WSOP bracelet winner Tilly landing in the No. 2 spot on one of fashion’s most coveted annual lists.
Tilly, who last week marked the 20th anniversary of her victory in the Ladies No-Limit Hold’em Championship, was praised by the Times for her standout performance as a guest star on the wildly popular reality series The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The publication credited her for "displaying a wit and a wardrobe the likes of which the reality TV franchise had never seen."
The Californian, who boasts over $1 million in live tournament earnings according to The Hendon Mob, shared her reaction on Instagram, writing that she was "so honored" to be featured alongside some of the biggest A-listers in entertainment and fashion.
In a 20+ year career, we've seen Tilly rocking some pretty iconic looks at the felt. Here's a snapshot of why she was flying the flag for poker in the New York Times' style round-up.
