Johannesburg | iloubnan.info – July 12,Christian louboutin, 2010
It was in its Louis Vuitton travel case that the FIFA World Cup™ trophy made its entrance last night onto the pitch of the final of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. Fabio Cannavaro, Captain of the Italian team who was the world champions in 2006, had the very special task of bringing the Trophy onto the pitch. He thus carried it in its Louis Vuitton case, took it out and then placed it on the podium in front of the 94,700 privileged spectators at the Soccer City Stadium.
To meet the request of the FIFA who placed this special order with Louis Vuitton a few months ago, the craftsmen at the Louis Vuitton workshop in Asnières (France) started making this case aimed at protecting the most coveted sporting prize in the world during all of its travelling. Naomi Campbell, a long-standing friend of the brand,Moncler Clothing, revealed the case on June 1st in Paris just before it took off with the Trophy for South Africa.
In order to continue embellishing the existence of the Trophy, the FIFA wanted to establish a new protocol relating to its arrival on the pitch at world cup finals every four years. It was therefore decided that the captain of the current world cup title-holder’s team would now come and put the FIFA World Cup™ solid gold trophy back into play. Winners in 2006, the Italians represented by Fabio Cannavaro, were able to share a last moment with the FIFA World Cup™ trophy before the kick-off of the match between the Netherlands and Spain.
Pietro Beccari,spiderman suit, Executive Vice-President of Louis Vuitton, commented « We are very proud to have been chosen by FIFA to create the case in which the world’s ultimate sporting prize will in future travel the globe. This exceptional order truly honours Louis Vuitton’s 150-year tradition of craftsmanship and savoir-faire. We were also particularly excited to be associated in such a way with the FIFA World Cup™ final, an event which unites nations the entire world.
