Bethlehem, PA, February 9, 2025 – Southside Bethlehem’s own renowned designer, Lara Bly, is making waves on the national stage as she unveils a stunning, custom-designed blinged-out jacket for Tonya R. Johnson, mother of Philadelphia Eagles Running Back Saquon Barkley, just in time for Super Bowl LIX.
Bly, known for her signature Sequin Bomber Jackets glamorous collections, took inspiration from her most sought-after designs to craft this dazzling piece for the mother of Lehigh Valley native, Saquon Barkley. The jacket, designed to shine just as brightly as the electrifying atmosphere of tonight’s Super Bowl, perfectly blends high-fashion with Eagles pride, ensuring that Tonya stands out while supporting her son on the sport’s biggest stage.
Super Bowl LIX, set to take place in New Orleans, La., will be an unforgettable showdown as the Philadelphia Eagles battle for another championship title against the Kansas City Chiefs. With Saquon Barkley in the backfield, all eyes are on Philadelphia’s powerhouse offense as they aim for gridiron glory. Barkley, a Penn State alum whose family resides in Whitehall, Pa., has built a reputation as one of the NFL’s most explosive playmakers, and this game is sure to be a defining moment in his career.
Former Congresswoman Susan Wild helped connect Tonya with Lara Bly for the anticipated collaboration, “When I saw Tonya’s post on social media looking for someone to make a custom jacket for her for the upcoming Super Bowl game, I immediately knew Lara was the one. Her talent and creativity are unmatched, and I couldn’t think of a better designer to bring Tonya’s vision to life.”

Her fashion shows, with the next scheduled for May 10, 2025, showcase bold, innovative styles, and her work is frequently seen at exclusive private events, high-profile media programs, and major nonprofit fundraisers. With this latest creation for Barkley’s mother, fondly referred to as “Mama B”, Bly solidifies her status as a go-to designer for those who want to make a statement both on and off the field.
“I wanted this jacket to embody Tonya’s pride in her son while also reflecting the spirit and glamour of the Super Bowl,” said Bly. “It’s a mix of sophistication, edge, and, of course, a whole lot of sparkle!”
