The White Collar Competition...

England for the 2018 world cup - yeah! Actually, I'm not that bothered. For all I care the tournament can go to Russia or Albania. But what I do care about is this image; David Beckham, Gordon Brown and Wayne Rooney - what a trio! It must have been a relief for Brown to get out of Westminster for a while, it's currently full of people who's after his expensive expenses scalp. 

So this picture, what makes it worthy of a mentioning on this fine blog? The collars, good people,the collars of these three white shirts are very exciting and interesting. Wayne in his Harry Hill oversized collar, Brown in his cut-away banker wanker version and finally Beckham who has gone for a modern and trendy button-down collar of sort. 

Also the ties are of interest. Gordon in a blue (?)and simple one, Wayne's is massive, stripey and OTT, a bit like Rooney himself. And David, who again acts as the stylish one, has gone for a black tie, which apparently is back, with a nice structure and texture to it; simple but sophisticated. But then again - his competition on this day was very limited...
