The Kansas City Chiefs walked a red carpet at Union Station Thursday before getting their shiny new Super Bowl rings. And in that fashion parade, one player shined brightest.

Defensive end Carlos Dunlap, now a free agent, carried a bright ochre calfskin purse from the Spanish fashion house Loewe, part of the LVMH family that also owns Louis Vuitton, and a current favorite of fashion-forward celebrities.

Running back Isiah Pacheco carried a bag, too, a Louis Vuitton unisex street style leather crossbody. His $1,800 Christian Louboutin black suede and velvet high-tops with spiked toes, though, upstaged the bag.

Former Chiefs safety Juan Thornhill’s footwear scored big accessory points too — turquoise-colored patent sneakers by Louboutin.

Dunlap’s Puzzle bag retails for $2,400 to $3,250, depending on the size. Judging from the purse in Dunlap’s hands, we venture it was the more expensive small tote big enough to fit a large wallet, cell phone, shades — and Super Bowl bling.

A $4,100 men’s version comes in more muted (less fun?) colors of toffee, black, khaki green and gray.

The Loewe website describes the purse as the debut bag by Loewe’s creative director Jonathan Anderson. “A cuboid shape and precise cutting technique create Puzzle’s distinctive geometric lines,” it says.

The diagonal lines of Dunlap’s black sleeveless tuxedo jacket mirrored the asymmetry of the purse.

“Wearing Loewe on the red carpet means making a statement,” British Vogue declared last year. “The Spanish brand, best known for its craft-centric and artistic approach to fashion, deals in deconstructed dresses that are more objets than #OOTDs.

“They make industry insiders’ hearts soar, and the average person’s nose scrunch up in confusion. But the best type of fashion — true fashion — is always divisive, right?”
