Looks from the Banana Republic L’Wren Scott collection
It seems that L’Wren Scott’s main squeeze Mick Jagger’s fashion inclinations may have rubbed off on the American designer’s collaboration with Banana Republic. In her first collaboration with a major fashion retailer, Scott has designed a limited-edition capsule collection of glamorous party outfits.
Roll ’n’ roll elements like sequins are added to feminine sequined party dresses and bejewelled cardigans. But Scott’s signature sexy silhouette still manages to stand out amidst the glitter – the designer’s trademark curve-hugging lines are present from the tailored jeans to the pencil skirts. Accents like silk and faux fur are also included to add to the festive vibe of the holiday collection.
Three original prints have been created exclusively for the collection – a dramatic lip print, romantic peonies and a striped pattern made up of various reds and pink.

The designer’s celebrity fans and Mad Men stars Christina Hendricks and Jessica Pare were present for the launch in the US and were understandably excited, decked out head-to-toe in the collection.
“A partnership of this scale was a first for me, and I was very excited to find a true partner in Simon (Kneen - Banana Republic creative director and executive vice president of design),” said Scott. “Through this collection, we were able to bring our shared vision to life and the end result is a capsule we’re both so proud to call our own. It beautifully combines the ultra-feminine with wearable polish and will bring a sexy confidence to our consumers.”
The Banana Republic L’Wren Scott collection starts from $90 and is available at Banana Republic stores at #B2-27/28 The Shoppes At Marina Bay Sands and #02-06/07 & #03-06/06 Paragon.
