Chelsea's football stars find perfect fit with Dolce and Gabbana!
By Gabriela Didcov
When fashion and football meet, the results can be unpredictable.
Stylish icons such as David Beckham and Thierry Henry pull it off with aplomb, but for every couture success you can generally find several highly-paid stars guilty of "bling" overstatement.
However, the players at English champions Chelsea can now step out in confidence that their fashion will not be labeled "faux pas."
The London outfit has signed a three-year deal with Dolce & Gabbana which will see the Italian designers suit and boot each squad member with formal club suits made with only the finest of materials.
The players will arrive at games wearing the new suits, made in a darker version of the club's traditional blue color, while the famous Chelsea crest will be embroidered on the jacket pocket.
Ghana international Michael Essien, for one, likes the new formal wear and told CNN that for him feeling comfortable is synonymous with being successful.
"The suit is great and I feel very comfortable," he said. "I like the fit and the style.
"Yeah, it's important to feel comfortable in what you wear. It's about how you prepare for a game, and if you look smart and you feel happy then you can go on the pitch and perform".
