When football dictated style ⚽️
In the early 2000s, Bobo Vieri was much more than a champion: he was an icon capable
of combining sport, fashion, and pop culture in a single image.
Today, as the world prepares to experience the excitement of the 2026 World Cup, we rediscover one of the photoshoots that captured an era of personality, style, and character.
« Christian “Bobo” Vieri, the panzer of goal, practically unstoppable in his rush to the net, a specialist in shaking off opponents like a rugby player, arrives at the Studio dressed in Sweet Years and covered in jewelry: a Dolce & Gabbana rosary, a cross given to him by Christian Brocchi, the AC Milan player with whom he opened the Milanese restaurant
“Baci e abbracci”, with whom he shares a tattoo on his arm (“Chris & Bobo friends forever”), an earring, and various diamonds on his fingers. » Words by Fabia Di Drusco for
Vogue Sport July 2004.
