Antony Price for a brand new range called Priceless
Press
Release Body: Topman, the leading UK men's fashion
retailer, has announced its partnership with Antony Price, one
of Britain's most important fashion designers who has been designing
clothes for a number of high profile celebrities since the 1960s.
The
new range from Antony
Price and Topman will focus largely on suits, coats
and shirts with an emphasis on tailoring and quality. The collection
has a definite 80s influence in the form of cropped jackets,
elongated shoulders and slim trousers but has still been created
with todays Topman customer in mind. Shirting is available in
four styles ranging from a crisp white tuxedo shirt to black and
grey military inspired tops whilst astrakan and burgundy fur coats
compliment this luxurious collection perfectly.
Antony
Price was the man behind some of rock and pop's most
iconic fashion statements. He was stylist for the first eight
Roxy Music albums, designed stage clothes for the Rolling Stones'
1969 US tour and was the man behind the classic "Transformer"
album cover for Lou Reed. He has also designed outfits for the
likes of David Bowie, Steve Strange and Duran Duran. He currently
works from his home in the English countryside, creating made
to measure clothing for an elite clientele including the Duchess
of Cornwall, while a small range of his clothes are sold in A
La Mode, a London boutique.
Gordon
Richardson, design and product development director for Topman,
commented: "As a young, eager fashion student in the
mid to late 70's there were very few designers I could aspire
to who understood the whole sexy notion of fashion and music that's
now so blithely bantered around. Antony was out there on his own.
It's a pleasure to be able to bring his whole rock and roll fashion
aesthetic to a young Topman audience."
The
Priceless range from Antony Price and Topman was launched
to the British media at a dinner and party attended by Bryan Ferry,
Pam Hogg, Nicky Haslam, Peter York and others at the legendary
Mayfair nightclub, Tramp.
