We may lose on Saturday, but University of Texas fans know how to look good.
Why it matters: Game day adjustments are almost as important as the game itself. Dresses, boots, cowboy hats, burnt orange and denim are not missing from the stands.
Yes but: The first lady of Texas football stands out from the crowd with her iconic game day fashion.
Grab it fast: Loreal Sarkisian, a professional stylist and wife of UT coach Steve Sarkisian, is known for her outfits that often include fringe, cowboy hats, cow prints and boots.
What they say: “I’m someone who’s always been fashionable, who’s always dressed up for every occasion,” Sarkisian told Alcalde in May. “Soccer games, a basketball game, going to the store, whatever.”
Sarkisian recently shared her game day tips with Austin Monthly: Beat the heat with lighter materials, stay comfortable in cowboy boots or tennis shoes, and always incorporate school spirit with denim, burnt orange, white and cow print flares.
- “For half the season, temperatures will be in the upper 90s or higher, so breathable clothing is crucial,” she told Austin Monthly. “I recommend avoiding materials such as wool, leather, silk and plastic. These materials may be better suited for cooler temperatures.”
For note: Sarkisian recommends shopping local boutiques to find the perfect outfit.
