Now Emma Watson is going very high fashion again, teaming up with the Italian woman designer Alberta Ferretti. The new organic line, called Pure Threads, is inspired by Jane Birkin, an English born sultry torch singer who lives in France and was huge in the '60's.
Watson and Ferretti met up because of Ms. Ferretti's admiration for her. She said "She's an actress I've followed since her early days. I like her freshness, her spontaneity and simplicity. She is intelligent, with a strong personality, a young, modern girl of today but aware of social issues at the same time and very rigorous. This is a moment that demands strong attention to these issues and we can help in communicating them."
The Ferretti-Watson collection is called Pure Threads by Emma Watson and Alberta Ferretti and it is only available on-line.
The collection consists of five pieces: two dresses, a shirt, a long skirt and a pair of denim shorts, all enriched with lace embroideries and made with organic fabrics such as cotton poplin, cotton muslin and hemp. It is made with organic fabrics including cotton poplin, cotton muslin and hemp and the packaging, too, is environmentally-friendly.
It's a summer collection, with little white winsome blouses and short-shorts. There are sweet little lace insets on several of the pieces, including the shorts. The black lace dress looks a bit Mexican and the long white one is definitely hippie.
