STRIPES.

by kim naci


Just is about stripes. No clever pun about Bill Murray. Or prison. Or French Sailors (although that does sound remarkably like the plot of The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou)

This month La Ligne debuted. A collection inspired by The Stripe. If you know me, you know I cannot walk by a stripe without stopping. Why? Was I a mariner in another life? (just broke rule #1). There is something so fresh, neutral yet chic about a stripe. Its the "goes with everything" - not unlike a snakeskin.  So, in keeping with the minimalist nature this post is simple and to the point. 

The team behind La Ligne gets it. Former Vogue editors Meredith Melling and Valerie Boster snatched up former head of development Rag + Bone's Molly Howard and they got done to business. And we get to reap the benefits. Yippee!

You may recognize some of these beautiful faces. Also La Ligne just inked a deal with Net-A-Porter and are working on major collabs with Leandra Medine from Man Repellar

Stay tuned (I resisted saying 'stand in line' and feel that warrants applause).  Stripes are so close to my heart, you knows theres gonna be a part 2 to this post. Minimal-schminimal....
