LONDON FASHION WEEK: PRINGLE OF SCOTLAND AW10: ARTIST TALKS
London Fashion Week: Pringle of Scotland: 195 Collaboration Talks
195 Collaboration Talks
As part of Pringle’s 195 year celebration this morning Julia Peyton-Jones, Serpentine Gallery Director presented the 195 Collaboration Talks at the Serpentine gallery to unveil collaborations with various Scottish artists, all inspired by Pringle garments, patterns and styles, focusing on the iconic twin-set.
Scotsman Waris Ahluwalia, Scot-rockers Franz Ferdinand and Turner Prize winners Richard Wright and Douglas Gordon are still working on their twinset, with Gordon promising a flesh-toned piece which would duplicate in intarsia patterned cashmere the tattoos that litter his torso.
Expect twinset from Colette’s Sarah Lerfel and Corso Como’s Carla Sozzani as well.
Each twinset will have a limited quantity of 195 pieces. The project plans to donate all proceeds from the collaboration to the gallery’s public and educational programs.
