Bloomingdale’s Kicks Off Super Bowl XLVIII With The CFDA
Last night, Bloomingdale’s unveiled their store windows at their 59th street flagship location to showcase the one-of-a-kind Super Bowl XLVII helmets that were created by 48 members of the Council of Fashion Designers of America. Bloomingdale’s and the CFDA produced a mini tailgate party in front of the Lexington Avenue location for passerby and then proceeded to a more private cocktail affair at the newly renovated Loews Regency hotel attended by a handful of NFL players and designers including Nick Folk, Prince Amukamara, Diane von Furstenberg, Stacey Bendet, Cynthia Rowley, Donna Karan, and Bloomingdale’s Chairman and CEO Michael Gould. Starting January 15- February 4 enthusiasts are able to place bids on the helmets at Bloomingdales.com/superbowlhelmets.
