Betsey Johnson + Parade Collaborate on a Capsule Intimates Collaboration
Iconic fashion designer, Betsey Johnson, has teamed up with Parade to unveil an intimates capsule collection of head-turning prints, whimsical details, and unique silhouettes to make every day a party, just in time for the holiday season. Inspired by Betsey’s Fall 1999 show and the ’90s grunge renaissance, this one-of-a-kind collaboration celebrates their shared love of fun, self-expression, and Y2K nostalgia.
The sustainable, community-first brand paired up with the fashion icon to reimagine iconic Betsey Johnson prints on Parade’s most expressive styles, aimed to strike a nostalgic chord with an edge, bringing the Betsey vision to life. I never imagined that the collections I designed in the 90s would still be inspiring forward-thinking brands like Parade.” says Betsey Johnson. “When I look at my earlier pieces, they were so straightforward, so pure and established me right off the bat – filled with an uncompromising commitment to sexy skin-baring looks for women of all shapes and sizes to feel comfortable and true to themselves."
The 22-piece collection mixes saturated bright colors with pops of metallics and neons seen throughout satin, mesh, naturals, animal prints, florals, and plaids, all that play into a reimagining of the classic and beloved Betsey Johnson prints.
The full collection range is available on www.BetseyJohnson.com and www.yourparade.com. Retail prices will range from $12 to $72.
