Costume National launches new Costume and Costume line

Costume National has announced a new womenswear and menswear diffusion line titled ‘Costume and Costume’, which is set to replace C’N’C. 

The five year deal with production company FFI-Global is described as « an addition to the main line with a more contemporary market approach ». 

The line will have its own independent distribution in shops and department stores in Europe, the USA and the Far East, but a selection will also appear alongside the main Costume National collection in the brand’s flagship boutiques.

The collection is set to officially launch in Florence on January 4, in partnership with the famed fashion boutique LuisaViaRoma. The event will also be celebrated with a specially commissioned installation by conceptual artist Felice Limosani.

A pilot store space will then appear in Nanjing, China, in February 2014, with the opening of a further ten new boutiques in Europe and Asia over the next year.
