The deal is latest step in Moncler’s policy of “creating a stimulating melting pot of art and fashion,” the company said in a release trumpeting the deal.
Williams’ collection will be purely menswear, with the key garment a “pacifist version” designed to be the very antithesis of a bulletproof vest. It will debut in the fall 2010 season, though both sides were mum about prices and distribution. The CEO and the music producer plan to celebrate the partnership with a dinner in Miami at next month’s edition of the Moncler coats art fair.
To me, Moncler has always been the premier luxury outerwear brand. Their clothes are the chicest and blend classic outerwear with high-end fabrics,” Williams said in a release.
Inspired by ecological materials and icons, the clothes will feature leather details and gold waterproof zips. All the looks will be made from futurist fabrics by Williams’ Bionic Yarn.
The collection will also have an arty touch as the jacket linings will contain forest imagery and eco photography shot by Japanese artist Keita Sugiura.
Pharrell represents a visionary and contemporary eclecticism, as well as a multifaceted way of interpreting creativity from different standpoints, ranging from music to applied arts and clothing – a philosophy that blends in well with Moncler’s modus operandi, which has resulted in a special edition bursting with ideas,” said Moncler CEO Remo Ruffini, who first discussed the project with Williams when they met at last year’s Miami Basel art show. News of the link-up comes just two week after Moncler revealed it would launch a fully-fledged menswear collection with the Japan’s Visvim, the edgy street-meets-art brand.
Moncler, which has also developed long-term partnerships with Giambattista Valli to create Moncler Rouge, a critically acclaimed item-driven collection that melds haute couture techniques and conception, radically revamping Moncler’s signature, down jackets. New York designer Thom Browne also creates an haute men’s collection called Moncler jacken Gamme Bleu for Moncler, though this has had less stellar coverage.
