New York Giants Sinorice Moss joins Priscilla Monteiro, Fashion Blogger and curator of new website fashionandfootball.com.

New York Giants Sinorice Moss and William Beatty were huddling last week.  But they were not discussing the Giants' playbook and they weren’t on the football field.  They were at La Pomme on West 26th Street talking about fashion and football.  Yes, fashion.

Fashion and football sounds like a perfect match, right?  Not!  Fashion is about style, color, fabrics and football is about huddles, mud and tackling. right?  Guys want football scores, news on their favorite players, right?  That’s not all they’ll get on fashionandfootball.com, a new web site featuring fashion tips for football fans.  

Olympic Silver Medalist Tim Morehouse, champion saber fencer, shows off his civilian uniform for the evening -- Hugo Boss.

The launch party hosted by Moss, was attended by wrestlers, fencers and men who … well … love fashion.  Olympic Silver Medalist Tim Morehouse, a champion fencer, wants his style to be as sharp as the end of a rapier.  “You have to wear a uniform on the field, in whatever sport you’re playing,” he says.  “But you’ve also got to represent yourself off the field. Morehouse, brought back from the Beijing Olympics, a silver medal in Men's Saber Fencing.  Since then he’s been on the New York celebrity scene, doing motivational speaking and is now signed with Wilhelmina Models.  Sporting his Hugo Boss suit, Morehouse proudly admitted, “two years ago I would not have known any of this” as he looked around the club full of fashionistas.
