Arsenal star Gabriel Magalhaes wasn’t the only one making headlines after Tuesday night’s Champions League victory over PSG. The Brazilian’s wife, Gabrielle Figueiredo, also stole the show.
Figueiredo and the couple’s daughter wore bespoke Arsenal leather jackets with the number 6 on the back. Gunner fans were simply impressed.
Figueiredo’s viral jacket wows Arsenal fans
The custom red and white jacket showcases Arsenal in big capital letters on the front. The sleeves incorporate the colors of the Brazilian flag—yellow, green, and blue—a nod to the family’s home country.
The Brazilian flair continues on the back of the jacket, first with the flag up top, followed by “OUR NUMBER 6” written in large white letters. Below, the number 6 reads “THE KING OF BRAZIL” in striking red letters, marking a clear tribute to Gabriel.
Adding to the family’s matchday fashion, the couple’s daughter sported a mini version of the jacket with a personalized message on the back that read: “MY DAD IS THE KING OF BRAZIL.”
The coordinated outfits melted Arsenal fans’ hearts on Reddit, with one supporter commenting, “I love this as a trend; I hope all the wives get really beautiful custom leather jackets.”
“It’s honestly quite heartwarming how much she supports her husband,” said @tony_flamingo on an Arsenal community thread.
One fan humorously quipped, “Gabriel’s wife just casually dropping a better jacket than half of our kits from the last two years.”
Figueiredo’s eye-catching fashion statement had one fan joking that the jacket beats the official club kits. One fan humorously noted, “Gabriel’s wife just casually dropping a better jacket than half of our kits from the last two years.”
Where did the design inspiration come from?
Some diehard fans noted that Bukayo Saka’s girlfriend, Tolanmi Benson, wore a similar leather jacket at England’s Euro 2024 match against Serbia. She sat in the stands wearing a red and blue lined jacket with the number 87, Saka’s first Arsenal squad number, on the back and front.
All fashion is cyclical.
