In an exciting development for both fashion and football fans, FIFA has announced a collaboration with VFILES to launch a new ready-to-wear collection, aptly named FIFA 1904—after the year the iconic soccer league was founded in Paris.
This fresh streetwear line will cater to both menswear and womenswear, merging the worlds of football and high fashion. The collection is designed to reflect a unique blend of “professional chic” and streetwear aesthetics, making it ideal for those looking to express their love for the sport while maintaining a stylish edge.
Founded in 2012 by Julie Anne Quay and Leonardo Lawson, VFILES began as a fashion label and platform, but has since evolved into a non-profit organization that champions underrepresented creatives. Quay, who holds a stake in Barnsley Football Club and serves on the Academic Board of the FIFA Diploma in Club Management, is excited about this partnership. She emphasizes the inherent style present in football, from executives to players, stating that FIFA 1904 aims to meet the need for chic, versatile clothing that fits the demands of professional lifestyles.
Quay elaborated, “This will inspire the creation, style, look, and feel of the FIFA 1904 collection,” highlighting the aspirational nature of the line.
Fans can look forward to the debut of the FIFA 1904 collection by VFILES in Spring 2025, promising to bring a new level of style to the intersection of sports and fashion. Keep an eye out for this innovative blend that aims to capture the essence of football culture in everyday wear!
