The exceptionally talented Adrien Brody is lending his very broad set of skills to the Swiss luxury fashion house Bally, not as a brand ambassador, but as a designer. Yes, the Academy-Award-winning actor and artist will be designing a collection of standalone capsules for the renowned brand, including ready-to-wear clothing, shoes, bags, and other accessories.
“As an artist I am extremely excited to explore a new form of creative expression. I am honored to partner with Bally in this special collaboration, allowing me to channel my creative energy in a new way. In my work, I have spent a lifetime on the road, inhabiting new lives in unusual places. Traveling and exploration has been a constant theme and great inspiration for me personally and will guide the narrative as I create capsules that capture and distill the beauty of a journey.”
All items are designed by Brody with support from Bally’s Creative Studio, focused on his passion for travel. “Brody will seek to honor and exhibit the rich history and tradition of Bally by blending his artistic flair with his appreciation for finely crafted goods,” said the brand.
“Since the early 20th century, Bally has partnered with the world’s leading creative talent, from illustrators to architects, musicians to artists. With that in mind, I am honored to announce this special partnership with Adrien, who has a unique style and creative vision. I’ve always admired his work on screen and in the studio and am excited to see his interpretation of Bally’s artistic heritage through his unique, multicultural and sophisticated lens.”
The capsule collections will be available by the end of the year on Bally.com, select Bally stores and multi-brand retailers worldwide.
