Kylian Mbappé: Fashion’s new rising star?

At just 23 years old, Kylian Mbappé is in the sights of many fashion brands, who dream of signing him up as their new ambassador.

The house of Dior has already won the favors of the French soccer star, as well as the Oakley brand, which puts the striker center stage in its new campaign channeling themes of merit, hard work and determination.

The love affair between soccer and fashion is nothing new, but in recent months, it seems to have taken on a new dimension.

From Lionel Messi to Cristiano Ronaldo to David Beckham, the stars of the game — true sources of inspiration for the younger generation — first embraced the world of sportswear before making a place for themselves in fashion and then in the luxury sector.

But Kylian Mbappé, with an outstanding record of achievement at his tender age, and with growing influence, is entering the world of fashion icons through the front door.
