Football & Fashion

Part I

Two different words ... two different worlds. At first sight, you may think that these two words do not have much in common. But that's not quite true. Both of them can make our hearts beat faster. Whether it's the emotional exclamation after a goal in a football stadium or the graceful appearance of the models in the new Autumn / Winter collection.

In this blog series I would like to point out some similarities and connections between these.. oh so different topics.

Fashion houses support football clubs

Modern fashion houses noticed the big influence of footballers to their audience. So why not benefit? Putting famous footballers in their outfits became an interesting marketing strategy.

Analyses

The Fashion world often can be very confusing with all the new designs every season. So there are Magazines, Blogs etc. who sort out the really  interesting things and creat a kind of diaolog for the audience to make it more clear and understandable. Something like its in football too...there are also blogs, magazines and analyses after matches.
