Game Day Outfits That Aren't a Jersey

Game Day Outfits That Aren't a Jersey

Game day dressing has grown up. The jersey is still welcome, but now it is styled with denim, boots and a good jacket. This edit is the tailgate look for people who want to be warm and look good.

The stadium as a runway

Game day style has become a genuine category. The clothes need to survive cold, cheering and spilled drinks, and the best ones look better for it.

More tops

Team colors are worked in through knits and tees rather than head-to-head matching. Tops do the quiet work in an edit like this, changing an outfit more than they seem to.

Trousers and shorts

A good jacket is the most important piece, because it is outside all day. The bottom half decides the proportion, so these are worth choosing carefully.

Shoes

Denim and boots handle the standing and walking better than any other option. Shoes decide whether the outfit reads dressy or casual.

Dresses

Small accessories like a beanie or scarf bring the team spirit without effort. Dresses are the fastest way into the trend, since one piece is the whole outfit.

Mini dresses

Team colors are worked in through knits and tees rather than head-to-head matching. Here the dresses come in every length and cut, so the look is easy to match to an occasion.

Denim

A good jacket is the most important piece, because it is outside all day. Denim anchors the rest of the outfit, and the cut matters more than the wash.

Jackets

Denim and boots handle the standing and walking better than any other option. A good layer is what turns a simple outfit into a complete one.

Accessories

Small accessories like a beanie or scarf bring the team spirit without effort. Accessories are the quickest, lightest way to join the trend.

Bags

Team colors are worked in through knits and tees rather than head-to-head matching. A bag is the accent, and it is where the outfit gets a bit of personality.

Gowns and jumpsuits

A good jacket is the most important piece, because it is outside all day. For anyone who dresses in one decision, this is the group to start with.

Sets

Denim and boots handle the standing and walking better than any other option. Sets save time, since the work of matching has been done already.

Showing your colors with some restraint

Pick one piece in the team shade and keep everything else neutral. It reads as support, not costume.
