DKNY is collaborating with Eric Daman, costume designer of the hit TV series “Gossip Girl,” to design a capsule collection of legwear for fall.
The line will feature eight styles of full-length tights and over-the-knee tights with a price tag ranging from $15 to $24. The collection will hit stores including Bloomingdale’s and Nordstrom as well as DKNY boutiques in August and will also be available at dkny.com
The selection of patterned legwear will include textured dots, jacquards, opaque and sheer stripes, a floral motif that has a burnout effect, and sexy fishnets.
The packaging, which features artwork of a New York City-inspired landscape designed by Dallas Shaw, is unique to the collection and pays homage to Daman’s and DKNY’s New York City roots.
While talking about the collection, Daman said, “The legwear will be reflective of my styling sensibility and “love of hosiery” as well as of DKNY legwear, which is often worn by the female characters on “Gossip Girl,” including Serena van der Woodsen, a stylish character played by Blake Lively, and her best friend Blair Waldorf, portrayed by Leighton Meester.”
