Premium denim brands, like beauty brands, are the flavor of the month for high street collaborations (Sass & Bide and J Brand for Topshop anyone?) with 18th Amendment teaming up with Australian retailer, Sportsgirl, (equivalent to Topshop) for a denim line called The Beautiful and Damned.
Available in store and online now, the line takes its inspiration from the F. Scott Fitzgerald novel by the same name, with the denim collection reflecting the free spirited nature of the novel in a mixture of classic, vintage and edgy silhouettes.
Denim pieces have been named after notorious female characters throughout history with Cleopatra, Mata Hari, Bonnie Parker and Yoko just a few used by designers, Rachel Rose and Rebecca Dawson. With prices ranging from $149.95 – $170 (approx USD$145 – $164), it’s a perfect chance for you to sample the bohemian wares of 18th Amendment for half the price. Did we mention the likes of Kate Bosworth, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, Sienna Miller and Kate Hudson have been seen wearing 18th Amendment.
Check out selected pieces from the collection at Sportsgirl.com.au – they ship to Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, United Kingdom and Singapore.
