Luxury fashion designer to collaborate with jeans label
08/01/2010
Luxury fashion designer Vivienne Westwood Anglomania has announced a partnership with Lee Jeans to create luxury goods in the denim market – inspired by the former's 70s and 80s lines - for men and women.
Sportswear International reports that five trouser styles will be produced for women, as well as printed t-shirts and a denim shirt, while four types of jeans for men will be available, including skinny and oversize pairs.
Chief executive of Vivienne Westwood Carlo D'Amario was quoted as saying that the collaboration with Lee Jeans is important.
"When Vivienne Westwood's creativity meets Lee's heritage and know-how, one can create an outstanding and high-quality product as this one," he remarked.
Colours of the forthcoming line, which will be on the shelves of Vivienne Westwood's boutiques around the world from January, include red, camel, electric blue, black and dark indigo.
Towards the end of last year, Vivienne Westwood also worked with Anvil Knitwear to create a t-shirt designed to promote the cause of deforestation.
