  • The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders announced a rare modification to their official uniform by incorporating custom jewelry pieces for the first time in decades.

  • The organization partnered with Texas designer Kendra Scott to create a dedicated collection crafted specifically for the squad official attire.

  • Director Kelli Finglass highlighted that the new earrings were chosen to complement the historical design without distracting from the iconic blue and white uniform.

The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders have introduced a rare update to their official uniform, which has remained largely unaltered since the squad inception in 1961. Preserving one of the most protected visual identities in professional sports, the organization confirmed the inclusion of new official earrings created in partnership with Texas based jeweler Kendra Scott. This decision marks a notable shift for the franchise, adding a permanent accessory to the attire worn by over 900 dancers who have represented the team throughout its storied history in the NFL.

Strategic partnership with designer Kendra Scott

Squad director Kelli Finglass and choreographer Judy Trammell, who both helped elevate the group global presence through their hit Netflix documentary series, spearheaded the collaboration. The design features the ‘Bella Silver Stud’ earrings, incorporating custom cut crystals and cubic zirconia shaped into signature Kendra Scott silhouettes. Organizational leadership noted that the selection process focused on finding an accessory that complements the dancers movement and lighting on the field while respecting the strict visual standards established over decades.
