Aspinal of London has recently unveiled an exciting and whimsical collaboration with renowned fashion designer Giles Deacon, marking a fresh transformation of some of their popular handbags and accessories. The much-anticipated collaboration was unveiled at a special event held at the prestigious Aspinal store on Regent Street, where guests were treated to a first look at the stunning 25-piece collection that seamlessly merges Deacon’s distinctive design flair with Aspinal’s timeless pieces.
The primary objective behind this exclusive partnership was to inject a touch of high fashion into Aspinal’s classic designs, resulting in a vibrant and fun capsule collection. Giles Deacon was given the creative freedom to add his unique twist to a selection of Aspinal’s most iconic products, resulting in a range that is not only visually striking but also incredibly chic.
The collaborative collection showcases a fusion of unexpected materials and prints on traditional silhouettes, including intricately embroidered, artistically illustrated, and boldly printed bags, clutches, luxurious silk scarves, and exquisite small leather goods. Among the standout pieces in the collection are the mini Trunk bag, the elegant Regent tote bag, the stylish Micro Lottie design, and the classic Hepburn bag, each adorned with Deacon’s hand-drawn illustrations of stylish Aspinal women.
Deacon’s vision of quintessentially English women with a universal appeal perfectly aligns with Aspinal’s strategic focus on key markets such as China and the Middle East. The designer aimed to put his distinct creative stamp on Aspinal’s timeless shapes like the Trunk and the Hat Box, infusing them with a fresh perspective while staying true to their original essence.
This collaboration marks another successful venture for Aspinal following their earlier partnership with model David Gandy on the Aerodrome Collection, inspired by Britain’s rich aeronautical heritage and the iconic Spitfire fighter aircraft. These creative collaborations underscore Aspinal’s unwavering dedication to innovation and artistic expression in the realm of luxury accessories, solidifying their position as a trailblazer in the industry.
