LONDON January 2009 - Designer Marc Ecko announces a limited edition apparel line to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the classic film, The Warriors. The collection, which consists of four T-shirt designs and one hoodie, will be available in department and specialty stores and online.
The Warriors was originally released on February 9,1979. The film tells the story of a New York gang of that same name, framed for killing a rival gang leader who tried to unite all gangs in the area. The film chronicles their journey back to their home turf in Coney Island, traveling through hostile gang territory.
Twenty8Twelve, the brand designed by Hollywood actress Sienna Miller and sister Savannah will make their London Fashion Week debut next month and show their Autumn Winter 09 collection. The brand, which is backed by Pepe Jeans owner Carlos Ortega, has secured a prime-time slot. The line is provisionally scheduled to close the third day (February 22) after shows from Christopher Kane, Richard Nicoll and Danielle Scutt.
Thom Browne, the archtypal zany New Yorker, is set to make a pitch to the Europeans. To paraphrase Sting, he truly is an alien, a legal alien, in Florence… Let’s hope is not confused for the man who designer Michael Jackson’s cropped pants wardrobe!
