As a child of the 80s, I’m thrilled to see TRON getting another go round with the upcoming release of TRON: Legacy. If you thought this science fiction classic was strictly for the lads, think again. Disney is attempting to score points with female fans with the release of some TRON inspired accessories.
Disney sought out a who’s who of designers for the range; Rousseau, Rotenier, TomTom, and Hayden-Harnett have all had a hand in the goodies. They include sky-high stilettos, futuristic jewelry, and these space age handbags from Hayden-Harnett.
“In developing these TRON-inspired collections, we saw a natural fit for today’s modern woman who blends fashion and technology in her daily routine,” explained Pam Lifford, executive vice president of fashion and home for Disney Consumer Products. “The films’ lead female character was also a great inspiration due to her strong and fearless attitude. Combined with the design talents behind these fashion labels and their affinity for TRON, we have the perfect mix to deliver a line that will resonate with women all around.“
The TRON: Legacy fashion collection will be sold at a new pop-up shop in Los Angeles this November before its rolled out into other retailers in February 2011. Do you want a piece?
