Yes, you’ve read that correctly! Nicholas Kirkwood will launch a new collborative line with pop artist Keith Haring. While in On Pedder at Joyce, Kirkwood revealed a sneak peek of what to expect from this exciting collection. According to style.com, “This collection of 12 styles features the very first Nicholas Kirkwood ballerina flat, perfect for those who can’t quite pull off his androgynous lace-ups or are too practical to don his vertigo-inducing heels. The Keith Haring by Nicholas Kirkwood range will be available worldwide in February 2011,” — the anticipation begins!
“I watched this documentary called The Universe of Keith Haring, and though I know his style, I hadn’t seen the breadth of his work. I couldn’t stop thinking about how amazing and prolific he was and how great it would be to incorporate his graphics into my designs,” Kirkwood explained. “So I ended up approaching the Keith Haring Foundation. I had to really sell them the product, but I think they’re pretty happy with the end result.” -Nicholas Kirkwood
