My thoughts on the GA uniform....
When I think of Georgia All Stars; I think of Grease, Weddings, Flight Attendants, Doctors and Nurses (I would say I'm showing my age, but I can say I "saw it on YouTube"). I liked the collared uniform when they debuted in 06-07, thought it was cute with the music, and I was fine with the reinterpreted version of it post-Rays.
However seeing this new uniform debut yesterday, I had mixed feelings. When I heard they were having new ones I was so excited to what was going to be "next" for a program with such a renowned history in uniforms. When I saw a picture of the uniform in Nashville yesterday & shared it with some friends, one mom said: That's the new one they just paid for?! It looks like the old one that their daughter outgrew and then the team mom bedazzled it a little." A little severe, but her opinion.
I would have liked a full top or a crop top versus the awkward 2" of exposed midriff. So I'm not displeased with the current design, seeing as how I was fine with the previous design, I was just expecting more change or something new altogether versus modifications. So people saying it "Wouldn't be GA without the collar" kind of irk me. I don't associate GA with a collared uniform. When looking at the history of their program, them and collars haven't "been together" that long. But if GA has chosen to make the collar, their "thing", then so be it. Nothing that can be done about it now. It looks good on the floor, as did the previous one. I guess I'll just start looking forward to the next new one. :)
