As for the design collaboration, Lurie tells us that it came about very organically.
"Vera Wang is a personal friend of mine, and when we were looking to redesign our uniforms in 2003, we knew that she would be able to deliver a contemporary and fashion-forward look for the Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleaders. It was equally important to work with a designer who understood both the glamour and athleticism of NFL cheerleaders," she explained, noting that Wang has also designed figure skating costumes for Michelle Kwan and Nancy Kerrigan in the past.
"When we decided to have signature pieces designed this year, we were thrilled to continue our relationship with her. Vera beautifully achieved the vision for the uniforms, creating sleek and cutting-edge ensembles with the perfect combination of function and elegance."
Now that's something worth cheering about.
