Milan: Move over Victoria Beckham, there is a new WAG on the fashion block. Winonah de Jong, wife of AC Milan's Dutch midfielder Nigel de Jong, says she is realising a "little girl's dream" after making the leap from blogging about fashion to designing her own line of clothes.

Some may suspect a vanity project, an overspill from the surplus millions splashing around in football, and the bombastic publicity material for the launch of the "Winonah" line at Milan fashion week does nothing to dispel scepticism. The Surinam-born 34-year-old is described as an "exotic beauty with an innate sense of style" as well as a "Dutch celebrity, style icon, trendsetter and social media star".
