Before the much-anticipated game, Travis Kelce made a statement with a striking outfit that blended streetwear with high-end fashion.
The Chiefs star sported a Home Bred Legends trucker hat and Bottega Veneta BV1012 sunglasses, seamlessly mixing casual and luxury fashion. The highlight of his look was a matching ombre jacket and pant set from Lanvin, transitioning smoothly from white to a warm beige.
The relaxed, open-fit jacket was styled with a simple white tank, providing a clean and minimal foundation for the outfit.
Kelce completed his outfit with a pair of Nike Air Force 1 sneakers, a timeless choice that added a touch of classic streetwear to his ensemble.
His gold chain provided the perfect sparkle, bringing the entire look together. The overall style was a blend of polished, relaxed, and sophisticated elements.
Never missing a chance to showcase a new look, Kelce also debuted a fresh haircut during practice, further enhancing his evolving style.
The conversation didn't stop with Kelce’s look, though. His girlfriend, pop superstar Taylor Swift, was also seen in the stands, showing her support for the Chiefs with her own stylish flair.
Swift's outfit featured a denim Versace corset top with curve-sculpting boning and Medusa ’95 gold embellishments, paired with matching shorts. She completed the look with Bordeaux thigh-high leather boots from Giuseppe Zanotti.
Swift’s vibrant red lips offered a nod to Kelce’s Chiefs uniform. She completed her look with a Louis Vuitton Side Trunk bag, adding an extra touch of flair and giving fans plenty to discuss regarding celebrity style, as per People.
This isn’t the first time Kelce has caught attention for his bold fashion choices. Earlier this year, he made headlines at the exclusive Neon Carnival party during the 2024 Coachella Music and Arts Festival, where he was joined by Swift.
For the Coachella event, Kelce chose an oversized plaid button-down over a white T-shirt, paired with blue striped pants. He completed the look with classic Converse Chuck Taylors and a 'Happy Gilmore' hat.
