Finally! A bike-top I would want to wear

Dolce & Gabbana have teamed up with Italy’s equivalent of the Tour de France, the Giro d’Italia bike race, and designed a racing shirt worthy of even the likes of Paris Hilton – if she were to ever actually train for anything.

The pink jersey T-shirt was modeled on the tradition of the Maglia Rosa, first created 77 years ago and worn by the winner of each stretch of the race. You can see the ‘Dolce & Gabbana’ near the collar, plus stripes of green, white and red, representing Italy.

It’s not the first time that D&G have designed for athletic wear (potentially a hot new market, ey, boys?) as they have designed for the A.C. Milan soccer team and the Italian national soccer squad, rugby and tennis players.

Although I realise this pink top is usually worn by men, as a girl I am highly fond of it for the fact that it is pink and that it has the ‘D&G’. That is enough for me. I want to know where I can buy this so then I can wear it at the gym.
