Bradford City’s Capital One Cup heroes got a taste of the celebrity lifestyle as a tailor to Hollywood stars measured them up for their Wembley suits.

Members of Phil Parkinson’s squad were suited and booted by bespoke tailoring firm Simon Carter of London, whose customers include A listers Will Smith, Robert Downey Jr and Jack White.

As his players were getting kitted out in the outfits they will wear on their way to their final against Swansea, Parkinson said: “This is a momentous occasion for both club and community, it's great to have so much support.”

Mr Carter said he was ‘delighted’ to be dressing Bradford City for their cup final day.

“Their route to Wembley has been heroic and a true underdog success story,” he added.
