Warhol’s Fashion ICON
The hotly-anticipated Andy Warhol Collection by Pepe Jeans is hitting the stores
as we speak .
The capsule collection, which aims to capture the artist's spirit, takes
inspiration from his work and the genre he helped shape during the Sixties. In
essence a collection of accessories and graphic denim dresses in
A-line shapes, it has been approved by the Andy Warhol foundation in New York - and, with its
two themes, Pop and Factory, draws on his muses Edie Sedgwick and Candy Darling
as inspiration.
While the vivid prints are influenced by Warhol's iconic Campbell's Soup Cans and
The Two Marilyns, the subtler pieces are reminiscent of the artist's personal
style and his fashion-forward thinking. Expect flowery prints, vibrant colours
and the fabulous graphics that made Warhol a style icon.
