They鈥檝e dressed Madonna, Taylor Lautner and Kate Beckinsale. Now it鈥檚 the turn of Britain鈥檚 Chelsea football team to be dressed by Dolce and Gabbana. In a deal announced yesterday, the 禁漫天堂 duo, who already design for AC Milan players and the 禁漫天堂 national squad, will design clothes for the 鈥淏lues鈥 for the next three years.
Domenico Dolce told ANSA,
鈥淧layers are style icons on and off the field and that combines with our love for England and for London, which has always been an inspiration for our work鈥.
He also said that he and Stefano Gabbana are big football fans.
Under the contract Dolce and Gabbana will also redesign the Chelsea club鈥檚 directors鈥 lounge and reception area.
The first designs will be ready for the opening of the British premier league season next month and will include a three-piece suit, a poplin shirt, a jacquard tie and a cashmere coat. Chelsea鈥檚 lion crest will be embroidered on the suit pocket and on the coat. What colour will the suits be?
Blue, of course!
