Tommy Hilfiger says no one can look as sexy in a pair of underwear as David Beckham.

We say he looks a million bucks even otherwise.

Heck we say he's perfect!


David Beckham may have retired from soccer last year but he's far from being out of the running.

Take a look at his latest campaign for H&M and you'll know!

Designer Tommy Hilfiger even named him the best underwear model.

But there is a lot more to the 38-year-old former soccer star.

Hell we think he's probably as perfect as they come!

Here's why:

The suit was basically invented for him!

There are probably all of ten men in this world that carry off the suit. His name leads the rest.

You know you're looking at a fashion god when he manages to make this awful grey three-piece pinstripe horror from the previous century look good!

And even though he cleans up like few other men we know, every once in a while, David Beckham doesn't mind dressing down and giving us an eyeful of that heavenly body underneath those perfectly tailored clothes.

And every time he does that, we also get a glimpse of the numerous tattoos he sports, including one in Devnagri which spells out that he's taken.

He doesn't just insist on making undies and suits look good.

Even beanie caps got their moment under the high fashion sun when he wore them here!

When he isn't making news being a fashion icon, he is making headlines for reaching out to the less fortunate ones.

Truth is he stopped being just another soccer star long long ago.

That's probably just one of the many reasons why even the Prime Minister of Britain cares about what he says.

He is probably the only living soul who can shoot a ball in a pair of Oxford shoes, a bespoke tailored suit and score a goal.
