Marks & Spencer ‘Archive By Alexa’ Collection
Thirsty for JUICE content? Quench your cravings on our Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and WhatsApp
It seems as though our resolution of not spending too much money on clothes will be a successful failure this year (as it has been for the last couple of years #WeTried). This is mostly because retailers have been collaborating with amazing designers and fashion icons that produce investment pieces — everyone has seen the resale value of Yeezy Boosts, right?
Take Marks & Spencer (M&S) for example; recently, M&S invited the fashion icon of British high street, Alexa Chung, to dig through their archives in Leeds for a new project entitled ‘M&S &’. The purpose of the project is to rediscover some of M&S’s classic staples, which are to be introduced to the current market. For the first edition, Alexa, together with the brand’s design team, curated a 31-piece womenswear collection — it does not disappoint.
The contributing Editor of British Vogue said, “I have always had an affection for Marks & Spencer. I am thrilled to be part of this special and unique project. There was something very touching about looking back through the British fashion and social history for which M&S is synonymous.” We’re thrilled too, Alexa — our savings, not so much.
Check out some of the pieces from the collection below:
Twenty-six (26) pieces from this collection will be available exclusively at Marks & Spencer’s store in KLCC in April ’16.
