Keen to show the virtues of badly-named shoe manufacturers ‘Lady Stork’, the  Argentinean is the star of a new campaign that showcases his modelling versatility: he has mastered ‘tying laces’, the tricky ’sitting in a relaxed pose as if waiting for a lady partner’ and so much more

Victoria Beckham Armani Underwear Campaign

David Beckham and his robotic wife have signed a £32m deal to become the international ambassadors of Emporio Armani underwear, which means we will be seeing lots more crotch stuffing and awkward posing.

Victoria Beckham
unveiled her latest fierce black and white shoot at Macy’s in New York yesterday, where the first 150 folks to spend $85 on underwear were allowed to have their photo taken with the extremely talented singer.

Apparently, Mr B is so impressed with his wife’s latest shoot hat he has had the picture framed and put by his bedside. Won’t that be a bit of a mood killer for the ladies, Dave?

Porto fans rob Cristiano Ronaldo’s CR7 fashion store


Angry Dragões relieve frustration with some petty theft

Those who want to dress like Cristiano Ronaldo - ie everybody - can achieve his fierce look with a visit to one of his CR7 boutiques. The Madeira branch of his fashion chain, however, received some unwelcome visitors this week.

Angry at the manner in which they were knocked out of the Champions League, Porto sent three of their campest metrosexual fans to the store to cause unrest. The gentlemen filled three knapsacks with various items of overpriced crap hats, belts and shirts, before saying some very mean things about the tricky winger to his sister Elma, who runs the store.

Fortunately, police arrested the chic offenders later in the day, and also foiled a second robbery plot involving up to ten men.

Revealed: The football scarves you must own…


…if you wish to confuse everyone

Wong Wong Penetration scarf

Do you have a penchant for 100 per cent cashmere scarves? Do you have a spare $150? If you answered yes to these questions, and you have a strong desire to antagonise white van drivers and Daily Mail readers, then Wong Wong are here to help.

New York based designer Stephen Wong’s luxury scarf range combine the traditional colours of several European clubs with “traditional football terminology”.

For example, Wong says his ‘Penetration’ scarf is derived from Arsenal’s attacking style. “People say it as a natural [European] football term, but when you take it to a different context, it’s funny,” he reasons.

Wong Wong Hump and Run scarf

Apparently, Celtic are known for their “kick long-and-chase” (!) approach, earning them the ‘Hump and Run’ slogan.

Wong Wong Two Man Combo scarf

Apparently, this means “to pass and run into space for the return pass without pausing.” That’ll be a “one-two”, then.

Italian footballer lives inside a department store


Man trades dignity for luxury apartment within boutique

Andrea Vasa living in a fashion boutique

Andrea Vasa is a defender with Brera, a side who ply their trade in the Promozione, the seventh tier in Italian football. This puts him approximately six divisions below a player who would be able to afford a luxurious three-storey apartment in the heart of the fashion capital.

Fortunately, German fashion designer Dirk Bikkemberg (who?) has come to his assistance, allowing him to live for free in a fancy pad located within his Flagship Milan store. Vasa parks a brand new Porsche 911 at the store, gets all the Bikkemberg gear
