Paul Weller is to design a range of clothing for Liam Gallagher‘s successful label Pretty Green, it was announced today.
Weller, whose former band The Jam provided the spark for the brand’s name, and who has often been cited by Gallagher as a big inspiration behind his own style, will curate the collection ahead of a full Pretty Green Autumn/Winter launch later this year.
Speaking about the new venture, Weller revealed he had been looking to design his own range of clothing for some time, and saw Pretty Green as the perfect opportunity to do so.
“I’ve wanted to design my own range for some time, and Pretty Green felt like a good home for my clothes,” he said. “I guess my main design reference is somewhere between 1968 and 1970. The clothes themselves sit between being smart and casual, with quality materials and tailoring.”
Weller’s range will be available online and at Pretty Green stores from June 23rd, more information can be found at prettygreen.com/paulweller.
