Jonathan Adler to make leathergoods for LF USA
Textile and pottery designer Jonathan
Adler has partnered with apparel and accessories firm LF USA to create a collection of belts,
handbags, totes, small leathergoods, scarves and hats for spring 2013.
The line will offer around 300 styles and colour
combinations; including bright red, orange, and turquoise flashes. Handbags ranging
from wristlets to clutches, belt buckles and wallets will feature anchors, keys
and rope accents, bringing a nautical feel to the collection.
"It’s amazing to go from being a production potter to
expanding into a zillion different categories," Mr Adler told WWD.
"It’s about colour and chic and taking a lot of my signature patterns, style, craft, and joy."
