The British designer brought in a younger and fresher look, attracting new customers and possibilities. One of the concepts embraced by Coach and various other brands for the spring and summer collections is to sell pieces straight from the catwalk show. The SS2017 Coach 1941 collection explores the American spirit, mixing femininity with punk and street style. The pieces available are exclusive limited editions inspired by America’s king of Rock ‘n’ Roll, Elvis Presley. FASHION | fashion forward CAPSULE COLLECTION The Christopher Kane brand is celebrating the most iconic prints in its 10-year history with a sweatshirt capsule collection. “We wanted to celebrate some of our most iconic and popular prints with the 10 capsule and felt the sweatshirt is something you can wear with anything. There was a lot of debate with my studio team over which prints to choose but in the end it was very easy. Each print means something to me and says so much about me, my interests and my collection over the last 10 years,” says designer Christopher Kane. NET-A-PORTER is the global exclusive retail partner and offers four styles from the collection featuring the brand’s famous floral themes from the SS08, AW10, SS12 and SS14 runway shows. COOL OFFICE SUPPLIES Following the tendency for creating paper and pen lines, Bershka launches its first stationery collection. Made up of articles such as notebooks, highlighters in all sizes, agendas, markers, erasers and more, the designs are crafted in the same way as a fashion garment. The style follows the latest trends with the brand’s touch. This season, the inspiration comes from Japanese and Korean drawings with a touch of ’90s groove.
