Super Bowl 50 will be hosted on February 7, 2016 in the City of Santa Clara at the state-of-the-art Levi’s Stadium, which is the greenest and most technologically advanced professional football stadium in the United States. Now, with the Big Game only weeks away, but America’s fashionistas already know what the best-dressed footballs are wearing. In honor of the 50th anniversary, the NFL and CFDA have formed a special collaboration. The Council of Fashion Designers of America asked 50 of its best to create one-of-a-kind balls, which it will auction for charity.
Specially Designed Footballs for Super Bowl 50
The results are as varied as the designers themselves. For example, Billy Reid created a black stripped ball using Louisiana wild alligator and Todd Snyder who covered his in chino.
Other designs include Melissa Joy Manning’s ball, which is encrusted with 17,500 Swarovski crystals, and Rachel Roy’s python ball featuring a gold-plated handle.
All footballs will be unveiled Jan. 20 at an event at the NFL’s offices in New York.
