COLLABORATION NATION
THREE NOTEWORTHY RELEASES TO SHOP THIS MONTH.
FRENCH LESSONS
This spring marks the seventh season of Uniqlo’s collaboration with French style icon Inès de la Fressange. The items in the line, like satin jackets, blouson tops and sporty polos, have a relaxed, nostalgic feel and were designed with a nod to idyllic coastal Marseille. The collab is yet another testament to the undying appeal of that ineffable French-girl sensibility.
CODE RED
Christian Louboutin was inspired by David Lynch’s Twin Peaks when he designed this surreal-looking clutch that is equal parts objet d’art and chic minaudière. The glossy bag mimics the shape of the brand’s iconic “So Kate” pumps, down to the red “soles” that frame their aluminum shell. Consider our interest... “peaked.” (From $4,450, at Christian Louboutin’s Toronto boutique and christianlouboutin.com)
MOTHERLAND
Mother and supe Miranda Kerr dreamed up a 12-piece collection that gives back: Proceeds go to Australia’s Royal Hospital for Women Foundation, a cause close to Sydney native Kerr’s heart. She named all the pieces; there’s the “Funday” flare—straight-out-ofthe-’70s bell-bottomed jeans—and a cropped tee that bears the slogan “Attitude of Gratitude.” (From $145, motherdenim.com)
