Trinity Rodman is on her way to winning her first gold medal at the Olympics with the rest of Team USA for women's soccer. There is no denying the 22-year-old daughter of Dennis Rodman inherited his impressive genetic and athletic ability, but she also inherited his unique sense of style. While Trinity's dad, Dennis, never played in the Olympics, he made an everlasting legacy in the NBA for his rebounds, defensive prowess, and fashion.
He expressed himself authentically, with bold hair and outfits the sport had never seen before, blurring the lines between masculine and feminine. In an interview with Vogue she explained, "I think he changed the game. I think he started that crazy out-there fashion in the NBA.
People can disagree with me, and I’m probably biased, but I just think what he did in his time...
it shows today." "He kind of also showed the world not to be afraid to express yourself in any type of way, if that’s masculine, if that’s feminine..
.. You can do it, through fashion," she continued.
It's something Dennis stayed true to after retirement and is known for his face piercings, colorful hair and beard, and bold style. Something Trinity sees herself in. She told Vogue, "My style is very loud, colorful, creative, and personal.
I’m all over the board. I feel like I’ll wear whatever, and somebody [inevitably] says, 'Oh, that’s such a Trin outfit.'" While she doesn't totally know what that means, she said, "I do think there’s a vibe to it.
Whatever I find.
