Diane and Andy - pop art swimwear collaboration
Collaborations seem to be the ‘in’ thing in fashion at the moment and Diane Von Furstenberg appears to have caught on quite stunningly. If you have a fetish for pop art and are a fan of Von Fursentenbergs, you’ll be very excited to hear about her newest project.
Teaming up with The Andy Warhol Foundation decades after she posed for the late Pop icon’s famous portraits, the designer is creating a resort 08/09 collection of swimwear and cover-ups featuring Warhol’s famed prints. Von Furstenberg has splashed his bright hues and big-leaf flowers on caftans, bikinis and one-piece suits.
“Andy’s Pop colors and iconic images feel glamorous and right for beach,” said von Furstenberg, who also commented that Warhol was a major inspiration during her early years as a designer.
