Camavinga’s new milestone

 

With impressive performances in the Real Madrid shirt, Eduardo Camavinga is considered one of the promising faces of the Royal team.

This is truly admirable for the young French star, who is only 19 years old this year.

Attending Paris fashion week, Camavinga immediately attracted attention because he appeared as a model of the Balenciaga brand, not as an audience member. That’s why this event has caused a stir among many people, especially enthusiastic fans of Real Madrid. It gets even more noisy when Camavinga walks on the catwalk with celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Nicole Kidman or Dua Lipa… With bravery and confidence, Camavinga has a performance that is not inferior to professional models. Karma. With a black jacket and flared pants, Camavinga strode very comfortably in front of the camera lens.

 

Camavinga appeared very happy to be a part of Balenciaga’s performance. Through Instagram, Camavinga excitedly shared many clips, from practicing to striding on the catwalk. Besides, Camavinga also shared a photo of the gift he received from Balenciaga. If you pay close attention, you can see that Camavinga is an enthusiastic fan of the fashion industry.

Football and fashion are increasingly linked

Camavinga’s transformation into a model for the Balenciaga brand is a vivid demonstration of the close connection between football and fashion. This is completely different from what happened in the past. There was a time when many people believed that in the extremely masculine world of football, there would be no place for fashion, which was considered weak and elegant. Nottingham Forest’s late coach Brian Clough did not sign a contract with Gary McAllister, because this player came to negotiate a contract wearing… cowboy boots. Former Man United captain Roy Keane once told Ruud van Nistelrooy to immediately get rid of his red hair tie because “he’s in the Premier League now”. Meanwhile, Charles N’Zogbia was criticized by his teammates at Aston Villa when he wore a Gucci suit with colorful patterns. Even former football player David Beckham himself has encountered many troubles when expressing his fashion sense.

Not only that, many celebrities also stepped onto the catwalk. In 2020, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Tom Davies attracted attention when attending New York Fashion Week. In addition to developing a variety of dressing styles, world football also witnesses increasing cooperation between male and female football players and fashion brands. Specifically, Marcus Rashford has worked with the famous brand Burberry; Megan Rainoe becomes the face of Loewe; Memphis Depay collaborates with brand Valentino. Most recently, midfielder Jack Grealish agreed to hire for luxury brand Gucci.
