Texan model Erin Wasson has teamed up with French luxury fashion house Zadig & Voltaire for a small capsule collection.
There are just 15 pieces in the Erin Meets Zadig range which combines Zadig & Voltaire’s famous rock and roll style with Wasson’s relaxed American air. While the line is small there’s a lot of variety to it with a python handbag, leather pants, suede jacket, and cashmere jumpsuit.
Erin may be more familiar to us as a catwalk model, but this isn’t her first foray into the world of fashion design. She collaborated with RVCA on the Erin Wasson X RVCA lines two years ago, but fans shouldn’t expect more of the same. Wasson was attracted to Zadig & Voltaire’s luxury status, and the more opulent fabrics and materials she could work with this time around.
Longtime fans of the brand may be surprised at how edgy the pieces in the new line are.
“Erin’s capsule is really different from what we are doing today,” explained the label’s founder Thierry Gillier. “It allows us to offer an even more distinctive product. We are rock ‘n’ roll, but Erin is even more rock ‘n’ roll.“
All that luxury comes at a price though. The collection starts at €90, or around $120US, for a cotton tank top and tops €1050, or $1400 US, for a foal skin coats.
The Erin Meets Zadig capsule collection will make its debut at Paris Couture Week in July before it’s rolled out to Net-a-Porter in September. The online retailer will enjoy its status as exclusive Erin Meets Zadig stockist until it hits Zadig & Voltaire stores around the world.
