Wade was born in a big baggy jeans era, but the former Heat player has a knack for fashion. The grace of Wade’s fashion lies in the ease with which he carries his fashion statements.

However, the main focus of the event was Hamilton and Wade having a great time together. The old friends were seen sitting on a table with their wine glasses and lost in chit chat.
