...Jerseys Enter World Of High Fashion

Now football apparel is even going high fashion: At a runway show earlier this year, Phoenix designer Danell Lynn showed off the first NFL-authorized ball gown, made entirely out of Arizona Cardinals jerseys worn by the players themselves.

"They are clean — no worries," Lynn says. "There are no grass stains, no sweaty smells."

Lynn partnered with the NFL to design the gown for a charity auction. She hopes its special red sash will bring in a hefty price.

"There's a whole front panel that starts at about the waistline and goes all the way to the floor that the entire NFC championship team has signed," Lynn says.  (To read the rest of this story please follow this link )

Arizona designer creates fashion with compassion

FLAGSTAFF, AZ (2008-08-01) Host Intro:

Flagstaff might not be the first place that comes to mind when you think of high fashion...it's more of a fleece and flip-flops kind of place. But tonight, Flagstaff will host a world premiere showing of couture ball gowns on their way to the United Nations. They'll be part of the U.N.'s Global Compassion Ball, an art show and fundraiser for worldwide relief efforts. The designer, 27 year old Arizona native Danell Lynn, gave a preview of the gowns to Arizona Public Radio's Gillian Ferris Kohl.
