H-TOWN FOOTBALL JUST got a fashion upgrade. The Texans teamed up with Houston’s own Christy Lynn to debut a first-ever capsule collection that swaps jerseys and hoodies for silk sets, chic dresses, and elevated knitwear — all in the team’s signature colors.

Hannah McNair, Vice President of the Houston Texans Foundation, and designer Christy Lynn unveiled the line with a fashion show and luncheon that felt more couture week than training camp. The idea? To give the Texans’ female fans something beyond the usual game-day gear. Think chic sweaters with subtle Texans details, a denim jacket with logo-etched buttons, and airy florals that still honor Deep Steel Blue, Liberty White, Battle Red, and H-Town Blue.

“This is about bringing bold, sophisticated, and stylish options to our fans’ closets,” McNair said. “We’re proud to highlight what makes H-Town special and merge sports, culture, and fashion in a new way.”

For Lynn, the collaboration is personal. “As a first-generation Korean American, there is nothing more classic than American football,” she shared. “Bringing my feminine aesthetic into this world has been such a beautiful opportunity. I hope it inspires other creatives to push boundaries and embrace collaboration.”

The line — licensed by the NFL — is available at the Texans Team Shop at NRG Stadium, Christy Lynn’s Memorial and River Oaks boutiques, and online for pre-order. With just eight carefully designed pieces dropping in sync with the Texans season, the collection is as limited as it is luxe.

The launch party took over Drake’s Hollywood. Guests sipped champagne and cocktails, then ended on a sweet note with Drake’s signature strawberry cake — each slice arriving tableside with its own sparkling candle. Models, glammed up by CERON Hair Studio and FACEFORWARD Cosmetics, worked the room, while a chic, fashion-forward crowd cheered them on. The result? A fashion show that scored big points for both style and hometown pride.

Leadership in Action: ‘Setting Clear Goals’ Among Secrets of Success for Attorney Jess Bailey

How did you get to where you are today? A few key principles integrated into my life: setting clear goals, maintaining a growth mindset, building strong habits, and surrounding myself with the right people. Goals provided direction, while a growth mindset helped me turn challenges into opportunities for learning. Consistent habits, like disciplined work and effective communication, kept me moving forward. Being surrounded by motivated, supportive individuals has elevated my standards and kept me accountable. They’ve provided advice, encouragement, and sometimes that extra push I needed to stay on track. With these elements, I’ve been able to create a framework that helps me succeed and ensures I continue to grow and evolve.
