The Balmain show at Paris Fashion Week invited Brazilian Soccer player Neymar, Jr. and Dani Alves to see the brand’s new collection, Daily Mail Online reported. The two soccer players even shared videos having fun on the runway.

The football superstars attended the brand’s fashion show which unveiled the Spring/Summer 2018 collection of Olivier Rousteing. This French fashion designer is also the creative director of Balmain, a brand that sells clothing for both men and women, footwear, accessories, and fragrances.

Neymar was wearing a stylish black ensemble featuring a plain-colored coat and the Catholic cross as a statement piece.

Meanwhile, his fellow athletes Alves wore a combination of a black blazer, white shirt, and sunglasses.

Sports personalities

Dani Alves and Neymar, Jr. were just two of the highly-acclaimed celebrities and models who attended the Balmain fashion show held on Thursday, September 28. Both of them play for French football team Paris Saint-Germain and for the Brazil national team in their home country.

They graced Paris Fashion Week after Paris Saint-Germain’s successful match over Bayern Munich on September 27, a day before Balmain’s show. During London Fashion Week, Olympic diver Tom Daley also attended one of the shows.

These two football players certainly had fun in the show, as they shared videos of imitating models walk on the runway.
