Viking Dude Off-Duty-Style: How Erling Haaland's Summer Is Going
Peacock Of The Walk: Erling Haaland and Isabel Haugseng Johansen are seen outside the Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda fashion show at Foro Romano on July 14, 2025 in Rome, Italy. (Photo by Vittorio Zunino Celotto/GC Images) GC Images It wasn't the prettiest of Premier League seasons for Norwegian striker Erling Braut Haaland, although thanks to a tranche of league wins, he and a couple of teammates managed to claw Manchester City's way back up into third place. They were runners-up in the Football Association Cup, but, Stateside in the last weeks, they were unceremoniously booted from the Club World Cup in the Round of Sixteen. Them's the breaks for the gentlemen from City. Holding to his summer form — and dutifully fulfilling his ambassadorial $2-million Dolce and Gabbana contract, inked in 2023 — Haaland made his way south to the Med, stopping off for a bit of a swim off a boat in June with his fetching steady, Isabel Haugseng Johansen, pictured above on her boy's arm on their way to, what else, a Dolce and Gabbana show on July 14 in the Rome Forum, of all cool places. The gentlemen designers Dolce and Gabbana certainly do not stint on locations. On this particular peacock strut, Haaland's white suit can be said to have been a Biarritz-to-Venice summer staple, especially for a Grand Tour boulevardier from Europe's extreme north, since the Belle Epoque, as we know from Mann's Death In Venice . It broadcasts a cock-of-the-walk, of course, but one of discernment and a certain headlong wisdom. The style arguably saw its finest decade in Europe in the disco-a-go-go 1960s in Cannes, in Monte Carlo, and most famously in Italy, in 1960, as Frederico Fellini had his eloquent male lead, Marcello Mastroianni, put in a rakish white suit signifying his real downward spiral in the last scene of La Dolce Vita , pictured below on the beach.

(Photo by American) Getty Images Dolce and Gabbana would be only too aware of Fellini's landmark white-suit scene, kitting out their $2-million man in something approaching that kit, and their aim would be for it — the suit and their imposing ambassador — to stand out in their fashion-show front row and at their afterparty, both of which were, at the moment of this fine red-carpet snap, in the immediate future. As ever, the question for the suit is, how's the man carrying it, and how's it carrying the man? At first blush, the jacket could even be said to fit the chesty six-foot-four (and three-quarters), 194-pound striker. The prodigious Norse lung cage on this ambassador being the giant barrel that it is, he can only be made to fit a two-button, not a three, which gives that long V punctuated by the top button well below his sternum. Certainly the sleeves and shoulders seem to have been well cut. And that's where the positive report ends. Lower down on the body, the suit starts to fall apart. Stopping us at mid-body are the (flapped) pockets. The extreme height of the pocket flaps — actually north of jacket's top button — unfortunately makes it seem as if, late one night in the atelier, and possibly in a rush to get this thing ready, one of the tailors had a thought about the pattern that ran something like this: 'There's been a mistake, no man's body can be this long! I'm cutting the damn pockets in where they ought to be!' As a result of that line of thinking, by any reasonable global positioning system app, there are approximately 6,754 nautical miles between the pocket and the lower hem of this jacket. Put more accurately, the people lost Haaland's waist. Haaland's pockets have been cut into the jacket literally at the man's elbows. Elbow-height on Erling Braut Haaland is way the heck up off the ground for a pocket to attempt a normal life. For contrast, in the last scene of La Dolce Vita , we need only compare Mastroianni's besom pocket slash below the second button on his elegantly cut two-button. The pockets ride on Mastroianni's hips, where they should be, below his waist. A word about perforated lounge-lizard loafers as a summer look. The shoe is an Italo-French peacock specialty, and there's a very simple reason for that: For something like a century, the sheer number of sockless second sons and disgraced aristocrats who have flooded the Mediterranean's northern littoral from the Costa del Sol to the Aegean simply demanded low-slung, informal footwear, and, ever hospitable, the France and Italy's excellent shoemakers complied. The go-go 1960s down on the Med and in Las Vegas sealed the deal for them as standard operating kit.

(Photo by Vittorio Zunino Celotto/GC Images) GC Images On July 15, for the Dolce and Gabbana 'Alta Sartoria' (literally, 'high tailoring,' aka couture) show, the fetching couple pulled out the stops and went whole hog for silver, as pictured above. While his better half works her way through several well-known hurdles presented by naked dressing, beginning with the underwear, the clearly delighted Manchester City striker has opted for a jacket-free grey turtleneck and beltless pants ensemble, reminiscent of the costume worn by David McCallum as 'Illya Kuryakin,' the dashing Russian-expat sidekick to Robert Vaughn's 'Napoleon Solo' in 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E,' pictured below. Though Haaland's turtle is not ribbed, it can be that his is the exact same shade of grey-silver as McCallum's was. THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. — Pictured: David McCallum as Illya Kuryakin (Photo by NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty Images) NBCUniversal via Getty Images One problem deserves study: The necklace, better pictured below. At this distance, it's impossible to say what it actually is, but in form we can fairly judge that it's (a sort of) bead choker, rather than the full-on Rev. Al Sharpton pendant necklace. So, choker on a turtleneck? Grandmotherly as that might seem, and it is dang grandmotherly, it has been done, so the difficulty is not one of gender. Question is whether the accent means something to the man — for instance, did he personally acquire it in the Chyulu Hills from a Masai warrior — or was it 'styled.' Jury's out on that, but unfortunately, it reeks of artifice.

In Rome, she layers extravagantly with a grand floral coat over a floaty cream dress and buttresses all that with some a racy pair of open-toed stiletti. That's confidence at work.

Samli is fearlessly taking the whole gilt-bedroom slipper-as-outdoor-wear thing to the max. Possibly, that is a Dolce and Gabbana shirt. Here, effervescently out for a fun evening in Rome, Lady Kitty is definitely in on the joke.

Everything about her is working well; she's a picture of a woman at home with herself and in her world.

Bottom line, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Rossellini, Enninful and Wintour, it's just possible that, if he keeps his eyes and ears open, the preternaturally athletically gifted Man City striker will learn a thing or two. And not just about his kit.

Erling Haaland's Roman Holiday: Man City forward and girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen attend star-studded Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda fashion show
Erling Haaland continued to enjoy his summer break as the Manchester City forward was pictured attending the Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda fashion show on Monday. Haaland arrived alongside his girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen at the show in Rome, which took place at Foro Romano. The 24-year-old was seen wearing a tailored white two-piece suit which he layered over a crisp white shirt. Haaland also sported a pair of brown suede loafers and black sunglasses. Johansen wore a nude sheer wrap dress, layered over gold shorts and a matching bra. As the couple arrived hand in hand for the event, which was also attended by actor Christian Bale, Haaland was seen raising his left hand in a greeting. Haaland has been an ambassador for the Dolce & Gabbana since 2023, after striking an endorsement deal up to £2m with the Italian brand. The Man City star, 24, has been seen wearing the brand's clothes across his social media platforms. Haaland has been looking to unwind following Man City's gruelling 2024-25 season, which came to an end just two weeks ago. The Norwegian international had been unable to help Pep Guardiola's side avoid an embarrassing exit at the hands of Saudi Arabian team Al-Hilal in the Club World Cup round of 16. Haaland scored in the clash, but was unable to help Pep Guardiola's side progress in the highly lucrative competition in the USA, eventually won by Chelsea. He had last week been spotted with Johansen in Ibiza, with the couple on a yacht alongside Johansen's mother and their child, who was born last December. The couple have been very private with their child and they are yet to publicly announce its gender or name. Meanwhile, Johansen is three years younger than Haaland at 21 and is believed to have met him at the youth academy at Bryne, who they both played for. They started dating when he was at Borussia Dortmund, with Isabel making frequent trips to visit him. Haaland joined Bryne at the age of five and spent more than 10 years with the Norwegian side before later having spells at RB Salzburg, Dortmund and now City. Despite a quiet private life and no social media presence, Johansen has been increasingly seen in the public eye during Haaland's time at City, celebrating with him during their trophy successes. The 21-year-old wasn't present in the US for the Club World Cup and was rather cheering on Haaland from home as he scored three goals in four games. Elsewhere, the opportunity for Haaland to get some extra rest rather than continue in the latter stages of the tournament may be welcomed by Guardiola given he previously expressed his concerns over the impact the summer schedule could have on City's upcoming season. Haaland is among the Man City stars now embracing their time off before they have to return to pre-season training. Man City currently only have one pre-season match scheduled ahead of the new season, with Guardiola's side scheduled to face Palmero on August 9. The match will take place a week before the Man City begin their Premier League campaign away to Wolves.

Erling Haaland and girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen look in incredible shape as they relax on holiday - just six months after welcoming first child together
Erling Haaland was spotted relaxing on holiday with his family as he finally unwinds after Manchester City 's exhausting 2024-25 campaign. Haaland, 24, was part of the City side that suffered an embarrassing exit at the hands of Saudi Arabian team Al-Hilal in the Club World Cup round of 16 last Tuesday. The Norwegian striker scored in the clash, but was unable to help Pep Guardiola 's side progress in the highly lucrative competition in the USA. However, one positive of City's exit was extra time for their squad to rest ahead of the new campaign, and on Tuesday, Haaland was spotted in Ibiza with girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen. The pair were seen alongside Johansen's mother and their child, who was born last December. They were seemingly enjoying their time away and were stationed on a yacht, with one photo showing Haaland relaxing on a chair while scrolling his phone. As well as relaxing, Haaland was seen diving off the yacht and enjoying his surroundings But the Norwegian also made sure to make the most of the surroundings and he was seen diving into the sea, while he was riding a jet ski in another shot. The Norwegian, who was wearing dark green shorts and a backwards baseball cap, took the jet ski for a journey before returning to the large yacht. Despite it being the off-season, Haaland looked in fine shape and his six-pack was evident. Meanwhile, Johansen also looked in good shape, just more than six months since she gave birth. Like Haaland, various shots showed her relaxing while in others she also dived into the ocean. As they unwound, her mother appeared to be looking after their child. The couple have been very private with their child and they are yet to publicly announce its gender or name. Meanwhile, Johansen is three years younger than Haaland at 21 and is believed to have met him at the youth academy at Bryne, who they both played for. They started dating when he was at Borussia Dortmund, with Isabel making frequent trips to visit him. Haaland appeared relaxed as he sat back and scrolled on his phone in the Ibiza sunshine Johansen has been increasingly seen in the public eye during Haaland's time at City Haaland joined Bryne at the age of five and spent more than 10 years with the Norwegian side before later having spells at RB Salzburg, Dortmund and now City.

Elsewhere, the opportunity for Haaland to get some extra rest rather than continue in the latter stages of the tournament may be welcomed by Guardiola given he previously expressed his concerns over the impact the summer schedule could have on City's upcoming season. Asked if the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal will possess an advantage in the title race, given they weren't part of the Club World Cup, Guardiola said: 'I try not to think about it, otherwise I will be so anxious. 'We can be an aggressive team with the ball, without the ball. After the competition, we will rest the time the Premier League allowed us to rest. 'And then game by game, month by month, we will see. And maybe in November, December, January… we are a disaster. We are exhausted. The World Cup destroyed us. I don't know, but it's the first time in our life that that's happened. 'It's not an ideal situation for the manager. Would I love to have two months to prepare for next season? Yes. Would I love to be refreshed for next season? Yes. 'But it is what it is. And we deserve what we have done in the past to be here. Once we are here, let's do our best possible.'
