The Daily Mail Offers A Critique Of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Fashion Boutique

Soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo recently opened up a second CR7 clothing boutique in his native Portugal. The first was opened in his hometown, Funchal, and the second opened its doors in Lisbon. What kind of subtle detailing and glamorous accessories can we expect from Ronaldo’s self-referencing line?:

The store includes all the essential wardrobe items for a metrosexual Mediterranean stallion, including diamante studded belts, jeans with leather pockets and patent buckled loafers.

In a departure from the recent trend for subtle labels on designer clothes, Ronaldo’s collection includes large metal emblems of his initials and team number 7 in clear view.

His blood type is also sewn, in diamonds, all along the popped collars of his shirts.

The flashy labels means it will be obvious to everyone the wearer has bought from Ronaldo’s line.

The store also sells slinky outfits for women, perfect for any aspiring WAG.

(That’s British slang for “Wives And Girlfriends” of athletes.)

Speaking last night, Ronaldo said: ‘I expect the store will be a success. I really like the clothes and I identify myself with the style of CR7.’

Which begs the question, how well do you identify with Cristiano’s style? Do you anticipate running out to buy clothes fitting of the “metrosexual Mediterranean stallion” in your life?

These shoes are hand-crafted from the foreskin of gryphons.

What a perfect way to express one’s allegiance to a celebrity.
