Super Bowl halftime show: Most iconic outfits of all time from Michael Jackson to Beyoncé

This Sunday, the Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots will go head-to-head to see who goes home with the coveted Vince Lombardi trophy.

But, while the Super Bowl is primarily a sporting event, for many viewers, the halftime show is the main event.

One of the most coveted performance spots in the music industry, the Super Bowl halftime show delivers everything from fireworks and glitter to over-the-top sets. 

For the fashion conscious among us though, the event is revered most of all for its outstanding halftime outfits. 

Over the years, performers have worn some memorable on-stage looks, from Michael Jackson’s iconic black and gold look from 1993, to Katy Perry’s beach-ball inspired dress and the unforgettable Janet Jackson ensemble that led to #nipplegate.

This year, Maroon 5 is expected to perform at the Super Bowl, where they will be joined by a number of special guests including Travis Scott and Big Boi.

While we wait to see what surprises this year's musical acts have in store, take a look through our gallery of the most iconic Super Bowl outfits of all time.
