o matter the university, ladies are dominating the tailgate fashion scene. Football in the south is not only a chance to support your favorite team, but also a chance to support them in style.
“Nothing embodies the Southern spirit quite the way that tailgating does. Delicious food, stylish outfits, and a whole day of socializing.” – Sally Ingles, Clemson University Class of 2015 The long standing tradition of dressing up for gameday is more than just ladies looking fabulous in sundresses; it’s carefully assembling the perfect look with a very specific color combination in mind. From head to toe (or headband to shoes) the ladies of college football have become professionals in the contact sport of shopping.
“One of my favorite games to dress for is the Black Outs at Carolina. Putting that outfit together is always fun, especially when you see the final product in the stadium” – Sarah Owens University of South Carolina, Class of 2006 Carefully procuring clothing that shows off school pride isn’t something to scoff at. I’ve seen firsthand what a lady is capable of in the midst of a sample sale, and it isn’t pretty. Yet, on gameday, when you look around any given tailgate, the two toned styles are seamlessly put together as if a second thought wasn’t even needed.
“In the years that orange isn’t a popular dress color, life is difficult. I have to search farther and wider for something to wear.”
– Ali Jackson, Auburn University Class of 2006
