Super Bowl Party Attire: What to Wear? (2024)

FAQs

What do people wear to a Super Bowl party? ›

Non-NFL fans — aka those just coming for the company, snacks, and halftime show — have it the easy; with no strings attached (save for a friendly wager or two), you can wear pretty much anything and everything as your Super Bowl party outfit — loungewear, denim, funky prints, or a dress. It's all fair game.

Regardless of your team, red is the standout color. If you flip through your favorite style or sports magazine this month, it is abundantly apparent red is one of the hottest hues to grace those pages.

If it is a more formal affair, such as an evening soiree, opt for an evening gown or co*cktail dress, or suit and tie. If the party is casual, a nice t-shirt with jeans, khakis, or a flared skirt will work well to have a gala time at the party!

But it has to be the jersey of one of the teams playing. You'll look like a poor sport if you wear the jersey of a team that didn't make the big game, and no one likes a poor sport.

Bowling is casual, so you don't have to dress up too much. A pair of jeans and a t-shirt or polo shirt will suffice in most cases. But if you want to get a little fancier, you can!

Even though the Super Bowl is scheduled at a neutral site, there are still “home” and “away” teams. The “home” team alternates between conferences each year and gets to choose its uniforms, leaving the “away” team to settle on a contrasting jersey.

It's likely a coincidence. Super Bowl logos are designed independently of the teams that end up playing, and their color schemes are often chosen for aesthetic reasons or to represent the host city rather than the teams involved.

The 49ers will wear their white uniforms, while the Chiefs will wear red -- the same uniform matchup as the Super Bowl in 2020.

Dressy Casual or Casual Chic

Dress slacks, sports jacket/blazer, open-collar shirt, color shirt and tie. A collared golf shirt and jacket/blazer may also be appropriate depending on the location of the event. Street-length dresses, skirt and nice top or a dressy pants outfit are great for the ladies.

What does dressy casual mean? It's a way to describe an overall aesthetic that is basically not-all-the-way-formal-but-please-don't-wear-jean-shorts. It's about dressing up what you'd wear casually.

For a passionate date, explore spicy reds and pinks. For a royal experience, purple always draws admiring eyes. And when you need to be a little more mysterious, head straight for blues and aquas. Finally, when you need to channel good vibes, try on yellows and oranges.

If you're looking to wear what's already in your closet, spruce up your everyday outfit with dainty bows in the colors of your favorite team. Get creative with red and white or red and yellow bows in your hair or pinned to a T-shirt. Keep the rest of the outfit simple, like a sweater with baggy jeans.

Get your game day grub on.

You can't go wrong with pizza and beer, but other stadium favorites include hot dogs and hamburgers, nachos, pretzels, chips and dip, and Buffalo wings. Handheld desserts like brownies, football-themed cookies, and cupcakes can be easily enjoyed in front of the TV.
