Kristin Juszczyk was brought to tears when Taylor Swift wore her design: ‘She launched my career’
Kristin Juszczyk is on cloud nine after landing a licensing deal with the NFL and is feeling grateful for the support from Brittany Mahomes and Taylor Swift.
The fashion designer, who’s married to 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk, explained that she has Brittany — the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes — to thank for Swift sporting a Kristin Juszczyk Designs original puffer jacket during the NFL playoffs in January, when the singer supported her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
“Adrenaline. So much adrenaline and just happiness,” Kristin said during an appearance on the “Today” show Thursday. “Brittany texted me and she said, ‘Hey, can you send me a video of Taylor’s jacket?’ And I was like, ‘Wait is there a possibility of you guys both wearing this? And she said ‘Yeah, we’re wearing it.’
“It was such a pinch-me moment… It just was incredible. “She single-handedly catapulted my career. I’ve been working at this for years. When I saw her in that jacket it brought me to tears.”
The singer’s jacket featured Kelce’s No. 87 jersey number while Brittany’s showcased Mahomes’ No. 15.
Kristin also teased that “some exciting people” will be wearing her designs at Super Bowl 2024 on Sunday, with her husband’s 49ers set to take on the Chiefs at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
The brunette beauty, who will celebrate her 30th birthday on Super Bowl Sunday, hinted that Kyle will be wearing “something special.”
Additionally, Kristin created a Super Bowl 58-inspired puffer vest and will donate the proceeds to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
