Dani Alves is one of football's most colourful dressers. Our fashion expert takes a close look at which designers he likes to wear, and how you can copy the look without breaking the bank.
HE'S adventurous on the pitch, and Dani Alves is just the same when it comes to his outlandish fashion sense.
The 34-year-old PSG right-back always manages to look the part when he dresses up.
He even looked good in a goalkeeper's jersey when he was forced to go between the posts for PSG against Sochaux.
But what does the Brazilian international wear and how can you dress like him?
Back in January, Dani went to the Zuhair Murad's show at Paris Fashion Week and looked like a dystopian classical composer.
He wore that cost £841 and looked like they belong on the set of Mad Max.
Dani paired it with his favourite wardrobe staple, the dandy blazer. This gold floral jacquard version by Dolce & Gabbana is especially flamboyant - and extravagant, it's worth £2,600.
Mad Max meets Mozart
But you can get the same look for much less. Burton Menswear do a floral jacquard blazer for £75.
Too much? Topman sell a toned-down version of the regal look for only £30 - this skinny tuxedo jacket has shawl lapels made from gold satin paisley.
The Michael Jackson tribute act
Another Paris Fashion Week effort from this year,together Dani and his model wife Joana Sanz defined the term fashionista.
Dani's jacket, although it might've looked like Michael Jackson's 'Dangerous' album cover, cost him £2,148.
The greek mythological design printed all over this sleek blazer is a signature design of iconic Italian fashion house Versace.
Emulate the look with ASOS' equally as luxurious offerings - a floral-print satin blazer and paisley jacquard tuxedo jacket - that are over £2000 cheaper.
The casual slipper-wearing gent
What else would he wear at the Nou Camp, but a comfortable pair of slippers?
But these weren't just any slippers, they were Giuseppe Zanotti's Black Joker rhinestone-encrusted suede loafers that he splashed out £680 on.
Luckily, you can get his look for much less.
Amazon are selling these crystal-encrusted loafers that sparkle just as much as Dani's Giuseppe Zanotti pair - apart from, they'll cost you a mere £33.99.
But if you're not feeling as brave as old twinkle toes, opt for ASOS's velvet pair embroidered with oriental dragons for just a flash of flamboyance.
The rock star
Dani loves to wear Balmain jackets and he looks like a total rock star when he matches them with leather trousers or leather boots.

He paid £1,854 for the label's signature military blazer and an astonishing £5,124 for another embellished blazer by the brand that could've worked as a stage outfit for Prince.
However, we have two alternatives that'll do just the trick and aren't as expensive.
Religion's tartan-trimmed blazer looks almost identical to Dani's but costs only £60.50.
And while his one-of-a-kind Balmain blazer is hard to replicate, ASOS has nodded to it with this beaded version that costs a crazy £5079 less.
