預測:小貝引領美國體壇時尚“男人裝”?
[ 2007-04-02 10:47 ]

正當人們猜測,貝克漢姆轉會銀河能否改變美國足壇現狀的時候,另一種有關小貝能否改變美國球員時尚窘境的猜測也紛至沓來。在小貝抵美之前,他的照片已風靡美國各時尚雜志封面,美國時尚界也在翹首以待,希望英格蘭球星貝克漢姆能傳授美國體壇大腕兒們著裝的學問。有評論認為,貝克漢姆的超人氣有可能刺激其他球員提升自己的著裝品味。

U.S. soccer might be hoping for a surge in popularity with the arrival of English star David Beckham, but some fashion critics are also hoping he can teach U.S. sports stars a thing or two about clothes. 

"Hopefully it will inspire them to lift their game," said Adam Rapoport, style editor at men's fashion magazine GQ. "I think athletes respond to competition well. If someone's looking better than them they want to get on par with them."

Beckham, 31, has signed a $250 million five-year deal to moved to the United States later this year and play for the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer team, but even before he has arrived he has graced the covers of U.S. fashion magazines.

So is the U.S. sports scene in need of a style icon?

"Desperately. And they're in need of a tailor," said Wendell Brown, senior fashion editor at Esquire magazine. "I hope Beckham has a major impact."

Rapoport agreed, saying there had been a fashion void on the U.S. sports scene since the 2003 retirement of basketball star Michael Jordan, who is now one of the world's wealthiest former athletes with endorsement contracts and business interests.

"I don't think anyone's stepped up to the plate since Jordan retired and I think they could use one. It's going to be interesting to see if Beckham can be that guy," he said.

But Beckham's iconic style status doesn't appear to have U.S. sports stars shaking in their boots.

"It's not going to put pressure on me. I'm not competing with him," Philadelphia Eagles football player Jevon Kearse said with a laugh, while attending the launch of Jared M, a clothing line designed especially for big, tall sports stars.

But he did add that Beckham's popularity could pressure other athletes to lift their fashion game.

Former Los Angeles Lakers basketball player Jim Jackson said that while he believed Beckham would likely have an impact on U.S. sports stars fashion, most National Basketball Association (NBA) players were already "dressing the part."

"They made it mandatory for NBA players to dress up," Jackson said. "I think guys really accepted that and really took it as a challenge to step up their game."
