Design label Orlebar Brown accessed the official Bond archive to recreate iconic looks for a new 007-inspired line, writes Paul McLauchlan. Orlebar Brown has just launched a ready-to-wear capsule collection inspired by Bond’s most famous outfits. The French luxury house, worth upwards of €10 billion, has a history of buying luxury businesses including the high-end women’s swimwear brand, Eres. Eres now sits comfortably alongside Orlebar Brown in Chanel’s portfolio, allowing both brands to synergise their respective bricks-and-mortar and online capabilities. The Bond collaboration starts at £145 which is considerably more than most outlets will charge for swimming trunks.
