Opening Ceremony collaborates on ‘Spring Breakers’ line
Opening Ceremony is going on spring break -- sort of. According to fashion industry trade paper WWD, the retailer has collaborated on a line of merchandise for the upcoming Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens and James Franco flick “Spring Breakers.”
The co-branded line consists of “unisex sweatshirts and sweatpants, mesh jerseys, cropped T-shirts, printed bikinis, backpacks and beach towels” created with the film’s costume designer Heidi Bivens, and New York artist Todd James (aka REAS). The collection is scheduled to hit Opening Ceremony’s New York and West Hollywood boutiques on March 22 -- the same day the movie hits theaters. [WWD]
