Simone Biles continues to prove that game-day style can be a major sport of its own. The legendary Olympic gymnast, 29, is well known for consistently turning up in exceptionally curated, high-fashion looks to support her husband, NFL safety Jonathan Owens. Her latest appearance across the Atlantic last Sunday was no exception, as she brought her unique blend of athletic support and trendsetting fashion to an international stage.
On October 4, Biles traveled across the pond to London to cheer on Owens and his team, the Indianapolis Colts, as they faced off against the Washington Commanders. Naturally, she didn’t just show up to watch the matchup from the stands; she also gave her vast following on social media a comprehensive, behind-the-scenes look at her custom game-day outfit, which was expertly crafted by designer Kelly Daley.
Taking to her preferred platforms, Biles shared a series of Instagram Stories detailing the complete look, followed by a TikTok video where she elaborated on how she intentionally curated a London-inspired aesthetic while embedding deeply personal tributes to her husband into the design.
“Okay, we’re in London. Here’s the outfit for the game. I wanted to do a very London vibe, so I got this trench, two-piece set from PLT,” she explained in her video, giving a direct shout-out to the popular U.K.-based fashion retailer PrettyLittleThing. The sophisticated trench-inspired two-piece set captured the quintessential rainy-city aesthetic while maintaining a sleek, modern silhouette suitable for a high-profile stadium appearance.
Beyond the geographic nod to the British capital, the outfit featured a remarkably sweet and personalized tribute to Owens. “So we put 38 here for my husband’s number,” she noted, pointing out the subtle yet striking detailing on the ensemble, before turning around for the camera to reveal “Owens” emblazoned across the back in vibrant Indianapolis Colts blue lettering, brilliantly outlined with sparkling silver rhinestones.
To elevate the ensemble further, Biles layered on a dazzling array of fine jewelry. Her accessories featured stacks of diamond necklaces, most notably a delicate piece featuring the initial “J” in honor of Jonathan. She also rounded out the look with an assortment of diamond rings and matching earrings, all while wearing her dark hair styled in an elegant, polished updo that balanced the structured lines of her trench-style outfit.
Yet, despite the abundance of fine diamonds and custom athletic tailoring, Biles made it abundantly clear that none of those pieces held the title of the true centerpiece. “This is not the star of the show,” she remarked playfully in her breakdown of the outfit, before emphasizing, “The star of the show is actually the bag.”
Biles then turned the spotlight onto her eye-catching accessory: a metallic Chanel bag sourced directly from the fashion house’s fall/winter evening bag pre-collection. The ultra-luxurious silver accessory featured intricate strass detailing, gold-tone metal hardware, and a heavy scattering of crystal embellishments that caught the stadium lighting perfectly.
While Biles’s fashion choices undoubtedly secured a metaphorical victory in the stands, the athletic side of the trip ended in triumph as well. On the field, the Indianapolis Colts delivered a dominant performance against the Washington Commanders, securing a decisive 30-13 victory. The win provided Biles and her husband with plenty of reasons to celebrate by the end of a whirlwind day in London, blending international fashion triumph with gridiron success.
