Lovers of denim listen up because they are about to get a whole lot punkier, thanks to a new collaboration between Vivienne Westwood's Anglomania and Lee Jeans.
Known as the The Vivienne Westwood Anglomania and Lee collection, the nine-piece range is set to include superskinny jeans and microshorts for women, and bondage and skinny jeans for men. They will be available in dark indigo washes, metallic colours and printed designs.
"It is very important for us to work with a denim brand like Lee with such a strong heritage," said Carlo D'Amario, managing director of Vivienne Westwood. Prices will range from £80 to £200 and will debut next autumn in Westwood boutiques and selected retailers.
We are super excited to see that many of the designers that returned to our fair city for London Fashion Week's 25th anniversary, will be back next season.
It has been announced that Matthew Williamson, Jonathan Saunders, and Pringle of Scotland will show at LFW for autumn/winter 2010. Christopher Bailey confirmed that Burberry Prorsum will join the schedule during his acceptance speech at the British Fashion Awards earlier this month.
"Following the great success of the 25th Anniversary Fashion Week, I am very happy to announce my commitment to remaining in London for my autumn/winter 2010-11 show," said Matthew Williamson. London Fashion Week will run from Friday February 19 to Wednesday February 24, 2010.

Get a load of the new Lanvin spring/summer print campaign - talk about a backbreaker! Alber Elbaz has added a dose of action to his latest ads, with Jamie Bochert contorting her body into all sorts of awkward positions. She moved so fast, even the chandelier was moving with her," Elbaz said.
And it seems she was a perfect candidate for the shoot. Elbaz revealed that Jamie had recently chased a thief for 12 blocks in Brooklyn after they tried to steal her purse. "That's the kind of girl I like," he added.
Lindsay Lohan's strongest (perhaps only) supporter at Emanuel Ungaro, Mounir Mouffarige, has resigned from his post as CEO of the company.
A brief statement revealed that Mouffarige will stay on in an advisory capacity, but is withdrawing himself from an operational role to concentrate on his other businesses. "It's my decision. It's not a total departure, except for operational duties," Moufarrige he told WWD.
Meanwhile, Lindsay will stay on at the label as artistic advisor. Mouffarige was one of the troubled starlets biggest advocates, sticking by her even when her début collection was panned by the critics.
"The criticism was harsh. I am sure we can do better in the collection to be honest but I think it was harsh... But it did sell well," he said just last month.
We didn't have to wait long for these! Looking more like her blonde bombshell old self is Madonna, who appears in Dolce & Gabbana's Spring/Summer 2010 campaign. Showing no signs of frustration at being replaced at Louis Vuitton by Lara Stone, the Queen of Pop displays a more playful domestic side in these grainy black-and-white shots taken by Steven Klein. Vanity Fair Italy scored the exclusive first shots of Madge who reflects her Italian heritage - a bonus for the designer duo.
It seems she was their perfect choice for the campaign. "She loved the collection," revealed Stefano Gabbana. "[Madonna is] passionate and impressively knowledgeable about Italian cinema." See more after the jump...
