NEW TWISTS AT VINCE: Vince has teamed with French fashion illustrator, photographer and blogger Garance Doré on a special capsule collection. Doré chose her favorite Vince items, giving her own twist to them. They will be carried at select Nordstrom locations, as well as nordstrom.com, beginning the second week of November. Women’s items range from a silk blouse ($225) to a suede ankle zip legging ($945). Men’s items range from a long-sleeve pima cotton crew ($95) to a coated French terry parka ($595). In total, there will be eight women’s styles and eight men’s styles, some in multiple colorways.
“We’ve been talking for a long time. Our aesthetic is pretty close. I picked my favorite items [from the Vince collection] and it felt very personal. It’s mostly about how you put the clothes together and the way you style it,” said Doré. “It’s my essentials from their collection.”
In a related move, Vince is also collaborating with Liberty London, combining Vince’s cotton T-shirts with Liberty’s signature original prints.
Two custom prints — “Liberty May Blossom” and “Liberty Dot” — will be offered on pima cotton T-shirts. Ts retail from $155 to $179 and will be available next month at Liberty of London, Isetan and select locations in Korea.
