A spherical representation of a sports equipment item, adapted for celebratory dress, typically worn during the autumn holiday characterized by masquerade is a common choice. Examples include garments or ensembles that mimic the black and white patterned sphere, often featuring padding to replicate the ball’s shape.
This type of attire offers a recognizable and thematic option for individuals interested in sports or seeking a simple, yet effective, disguise. The design draws upon the widespread appeal of the sport and provides a straightforward means of identification. Its historical context, while not deeply rooted in traditional folklore, reflects contemporary popular culture and the integration of sports into celebratory events.
