Longchamp “energised” by collaboration with streetwear designer
18/04/2018
The collection is based around the themes of travel and movement, with Mr Oliver adding his street-inspired design ideas to classic Longchamp products, such as its Le Pliage tote bag.
Longchamp’s artistic director, Sophie Delafontaine, has said working with Mr Oliver was “a particularly energising experience”. She added that the result is an “unexpected collection”.
For his part, Mr Oliver said: “I really like the idea of working with brands that are masters of their craft. Longchamp has a prestigious history of providing luxury travel essentials with expert craftsmanship. It made total sense to work with them on my first all-accessories project.”
The collection will launch on May 4 at selected Longchamp stores and online. It will be made available at more locations later that month.
