Sketches: Fred Perry
Fred Perry and music has long been a great fit, and the iconic brand hooking up with Amy Winehouse has been rumours for sometime, but the label have final confirmed it is true and released this cool sketches.
OK, mini disclaimer – I am not the biggest fan of Amy Winehouse, but I have to admit these designs capture her signature retro style and attitude quite well. Not a look for me, but the 17-piece womenswear collection, out in October, will include jumper dresses, pencil skirts, capri pants and girlie twinsets – Fifties sex siren look. Of course the range will also include Fred Perry’s classic polo shirts and the colour palette is sticking predominantly with black and pink.
I do reserve complete judgement until I see the pieces in person, and also whether or not they also include her in all the promo material, but considering they’ve kept the price range down – all from £22 – £100, I am liking.
