We are two days away from the beginning of the 2014 FIFA World Cup, the enormous international soccer championship that has been awarded every four years since 1930. The 2010 tournament was held in South Africa, and it was won by Spain, the country’s first title. Brazil will be the host nation this time around when 32 teams will fight for the World Cup trophy.
So needless to say, World Cup fever is slowly taking over the globe: hat, socks, soccer balls, jerseys, pants, fake fingernails, towels, jewelry, cars, bikes … If you think of it, there is a good chance you might find it in the colors of your team. The main intent is to support your country in the most fun and original festive way. However, if you like to do things in a more different and styli$h way, I selected few items that will for sure make your look worth of a trophy.
1. Hublot Timepieces
The official timekeeper and watch of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil will, for sure, be the reason why you will never be late for a soccer match. It is so beautiful you wont keep your eyes off it.
Together with Sepp magazine, YOOX have created an exclusive line by asking 10 designers from 10 different countries to design a collection of unisex, Italian-made sweatshirts, each featuring a custom print inspired by their native country. Just super cool!
3. Y-3 Honja
Yohji Yamamoto line with Adidas never disappoints. The skate-inspired Y-3 Honja with smooth patent and premium leathers embossed with football motif quilting is just pure luxury.
Inspired by Brazils festive carnival spirit with added football motifs, the MCM line with shoppers, pouches and backpacks will be the perfect accessory to any soccer event.
Featuring the flags of your country, this super-trendy Brazilian brand has just launched a swimsuit team line, CA-RIO-CA Wear is already thinking on the Olympic Games, which it will also be hosted in Rio in 2016.
6. Havaianas
The successful idea launched back in the 2010 World Cup is extremely welcomed back.
A perfect solution for those who want to honor their soccer team without looking like everybody around. In this collaboration between Aloye and Wong Wong, you will only find shirts for the eight past champion nations plus Japan and the U.S.A., the respective home countries of Aloye and Wong Wong.
Necklaces, bracelets and headbands never looked so light and good with this line perfectly created with the colors of the competing teams. I love this trend.
9. Osklen
Osklen has gone above and beyond with its gorgeous themed collection for the World Cup, but this striped dress is just to die or score for!
10. Melissa Seduce & Karl Lagerfeld
Leave it to Karl to put a ball on the top of the flat Seduce model for the Melissa brand. Just young and adorable.
RL is 23 years old and for sure he will generate one of the biggest trends of the 2014 World Cup. He was selected during a competition on a major Brazilian TV show to be the official hairstylist of the Brazil team. His talent is quite impressive, and the Brazilian players’ heads will be his canvas for the world to see and be inspired by.
12. Versace Shirt
Donatella got in the soccer fever game with this very Versace homage to the sport. Expensive and priceless, if you know what I mean.
