Before seeing Rio Ferdinand at the Burberry show, Declan Rice replaces the pitch for the runway at the Labrum exhibition

Declan Rice walked the Labrum runway show at The Emirates Stadium on Monday in a neat blue suit, cutting a sombre image.

Additionally there at the fashion event was the 25-year Arsenal football player, who later turned up front row at the Burberry show alongside former player Rio Ferdinand.

Declan looked every inch the perfect model as he walked his first fashion show in a navy jacket which boasted a white lace up tie down the front.

He matched the number with a pair of identical trousers and decided on a white shirt buttoned to the top.

Earning an amazing £250,000 a week at Arsenal, the defensive midfielder kept comfy in a pair of black trainers as he walked down the catwalk with one hand in his pants pocket.

Declan smiled broadly as crew members polished his elegant attire before he left.

And the Arsenal footballer, 25, wasn't the only sports star in attendance at the fashion event as he was later spotted next to former player Rio Ferdinand on the front row at the Burberry show

Former Arsenal player and commentator Alex Scott, who looked great in an all black costume, sat front row for the show. 

She matched her fitting mesh Emirates cami top with low rise floral patterned oversized trousers. 

Alex put inches on her frame in a pair of elegant black knee high leather boots.

Sitting beside actor Nabhaan Rizwan, Alex appeared to be in great spirits during the performance.

Later on Declan was seen making his way to the Burberry exhibition, joining Rio and his wife Kate. 

Declan previously dipped into modelling in 2022 when he posed for multimedia magazine Circle Zero Eight – which was founded by former British GQ Style Deputy Editor and Fashion Director, Elgar Johnson. 

The then 23-year-old England international was shown sporting Prada, having been shot by Maxwell Tomlinson and styled by Johnson for the inaugural editorial cover story.

It follows Declan’s recent revelation of his second career to his fans online, which included specifics about his new pastime.
