Are Bradley Wiggins And Liam Gallagher BFFs (Best Fashion Friends)?














The blossoming bromance between cycling hero Bradley Wiggins and his new, fellow sideburn-sporting friend Liam Gallagher has reached fashionable heights.

We hate to say I told you so - but here we go anyway: when we conjured a slideshow of fantasy fashion campaigns for Team GB's victorious Olympians post-Games, we thought Bradley Wiggins for Liam Gallagher's label Pretty Green would be a match made in mod heaven.

Now it turns out the two got on like a house on fire in real life at the GQ Awards earlier this week, with potty-mouthed Gallagher presenting 'Wiggo' with his Lifetime Achievement Award, and inspiring the ex-Oasis frontman to tweet: "Bradley Wiggins, cool as f*** LG'.

But the bromance has reached third base with reports of Tour de France champion Wiggins snapping up Liam's designs from his local Pretty Green store in Manchester, according to the Manchester Evening News (we wonder if Liam was so generous as to bestow Wiggo with a discount card?).

"Clothes are important, man" professed Gallagher when he talked to us about his line last month - and he's certainly doing something right with 11 stand-alone shops in the UK and expansion in Japan and Tokyo.

The sideburned duo must have clearly bonded over their love of musical 'Modfather' Paul Weller; Wiggins not-so-subtly styles himself on the rock legend while Gallagher's line Pretty Green takes its name from a song by Weller's old band The Jam.

The only forseeable thorn in this fashion friendship's side is Wiggo's six-season design deal with Fred Perry. Looks like Liam will have to wait a while to sign the lamb-chopped legend as his new front man.
