ANINE BING & JANESSA LEONE TEAM UP TO LAUNCH A CAPSULE COLLECTION

Two Los Angeles-based fashion houses Anine Bing and Janessa Leone have joined forces to bear to fruition an exclusive capsule collection. Both distinct approaches to timeless design have enabled them with successful results at creating a collection that marries the feminine with the masculine in a soft-meets-hard aesthetics. The end result is an effortless style with a rock 'n' roll edge.

The collaboration is united by a passion for creating meaningful pieces that fuse simplicity with strength, inspiring confidence in the wear. A stand-out feature of the collaboration is the chevron stud pattern on the black hat which more or less a real departure from Janessa's minimalist style. The other two styles are unique in that the colors are created to coordinate with Anine Bing's Dylan coat in tan and navy, part of her Fall collection. The Anine Bing X Janessa Leone collaborative styles can be shopped on online at janesaleone.com and aninebing.com as well as The Edit at Platform City and Anine Bing stores worldwide.

Janessa & Anine shared statements of what the partnership means to them ''I've always been a fan of Anine's personal style and how it translates into the brand's she built. Anine epitomizes an effortless, confident attitude with such a cool and feminine spin. It was such a joy to incorporate her perspective on our minimal designs to create hats that make our customers feel confident and beautiful'', said Janessa Leone.

''I love the style and feminine energy of Janessa's designs and have always admired how her hats can add the perfect rock 'n' roll touch to an outfit. She understands the beauty in minimalism and loves how closely our brands are able to co-exist. Working with her on this partnership was amazing and I am so proud to have created 3 timeless pieces that will make the women wearing them feel effortless and confident,'' said Anine Bing.
