They said/We said: David Beckham’s assets are expertly displayed in the ad for his H&M underwear collection
By Bianca Teixeira
A first look at David Beckham’s advertisement for his H&M underwear collection has hit the web, and shall we just say, the Swedish brand sure knows its assets.
No stranger to flaunting his abs, pecs, glutes, and, well, you get it, the British soccer player first starred in Emporio Armani’s 2009 underwear campaign, and now he’s sharing once again. Set to launch on Feb. 2, the collection’s first campaign photo spotlights Beckham in all his glory—and a pair of $10 underwear.
The black and white photo features the star in his skivvies with his name in bold text stamped over his body. In an act of genius, the letters covering his inked chest have been photoshopped out. As we all wait with bated breath for more ads to be released, it gets us thinking: Should we all line up at H&M on Feb. 2 for Beckham posters to take home? Or shall we just hope that future ads come with a workable eraser—if you know what we mean.

Dispatches from Milan: Butterscotch leather at Ferré, chatting with Rachel Zoe, and a bowl of spaghetti rosa
Packed about 3 days worth of shows and re-sees into today so forgive me if I’m a bit loopy! One thing’s for sure– jet lag is a luxury I can’t afford to indulge in, but my bed is calling me so here are just a few morsels before I call it a day:
Cranky buyers and editors are complaining bitterly about the (even) shorter Milan schedule–its actually nuts, even for a fashion crazed high-energy type-A like me!
From early-morning dominatrixes at Dsquared, all the way through to futuristic tartans at Jil Sander tonight, it was run run run. I think next season I’ll need a chopper.
