From the press release:
NET-A-PORTER celebrates the hotly anticipated release of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire with an exclusive capsule collection inspired by the movie. Created by the film’s multi award-winning costume designer Trish Summerville, Capitol Couture features laser-cut leather, streamlined silhouettes and dramatic eveningwear.
"I am extremely proud of the designs that we created for 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire' and there's no partner more appropriate for 'Capitol Couture' than the world's most cutting-edge luxury retailer," Summerville said. "I can't wait to share it with the public through this exclusive partnership with Lionsgate and NET-A-PORTER."
Holli Rogers, Fashion Director, NET-A-PORTER.COM, stated, "When we were approached by Lionsgate to offer the collection by Trish Summerville to our customers exclusively, we jumped at the chance. Our customers take their style cues from myriad sources, from the latest runway shows and street trends to TV and film. Fashion plays an important role in The Hunger Games series and is especially prevalent in Catching Fire, and fans of the franchise will see the film reference in the collection. This is also brilliant fashion in its own right, and we're delighted to provide our customers with the chance to purchase limited-edition pieces designed by one of the most original costume designers in the industry today."
Tim Palen, Lionsgate's Chief Marketing Officer, said, "In the world of The Hunger Games, one of the ways the Capitol defines itself is through fashion. When we launched Capitol Couture online (capitolcouture.pn), it took off and quickly became an out-of-world experience for both fans of the franchise and those obsessed with the future of fashion. Trish Summerville's Capitol Couture collection for NET-A-PORTER is a brilliant, elegant and chic extension of this effort."
