The Most Fashionable Super Bowl Halftime Shows
From Diana Ross to Britney Spears, some of the most fashionable Super Bowl Halftime Show performers and looks of all time are here.
Fashion has drastically evolved throughout the years, especially at the Super Bowl. Who knew that a sports event could have so much impact on the fashion world? Stars like Prince and Lady Gaga wore bold and beautiful pieces which illuminated the stage. We, of course, adore the performances themselves, but the outfits are the cherry on top. As another Super Bowl quickly approaches, let's take a trip down memory lane and recall some of the most memorable halftime outfits.
1996: Diana Ross at Super Bowl XXX
Although we're not certain who the designer is, it would be tragic not to include these iconic Halftime Show outfits. Diana Ross opened her show wearing a huge, metallic cloak and later changed into a strapless orange and magenta gown.
2001: Aerosmith and Britney Spears at Super Bowl XXXV
Britney Spears was the face of Y2K, and her style still lives on in today's fashion world. Her outfit choice for the 2001 Super Bowl Halftime Show wasn't really out there for her standards, but it's not every day that you see someone wearing a tube arm sock.
