Messi Wore Odd Suit To The 2012 Ballon D’Or

This is what Barcelona forward, Lionel Messi, wore to the Ballon D’Or ceremony that was held in Zurich this Monday.  It does appear from his fashion choices for the past two years, that the mesmeric Argentine, is better at football than buying suits. For the 2011 edition, he was a wine coloured suede jacket, but for the 2012 ceremony, the 25-year-old stepped out in a red polka-dotted suit, that did not sit well with a lot of people who watched. But who cares? It was the outfit he climbed the stage, to receive his fourth consecutive Ballon D’Or prize.
