Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear to a Vanderbilt football game?
A black-and-gold top or dress, one dressier layering piece, and a statement accessory — that combination carries you from tailgate to FirstBank Stadium to dinner on Broadway after.
What is a good Vanderbilt gift for a college student?
A small capsule wardrobe — a dress, a scuba set, and a tee — gives her a full season of outfits instead of just one tee.
How do you dress up a gameday tee?
