Hussein Chalayan to team up with J Brand

The avant garde designer, best known for his stunning catwalk shows, is set to team up with premium denim label J Brand.

A capsule collection designed by Chalayan is set to hit stores at the beginning of autumn - no word yet on what exactly we can expect but, it's safe to say, that if the Brit designer and his imagination are involved, they will be no ordinary jeans. With his love of new fabrics and pioneering technology Chalayan is known for his incredible creativity but not always wearability - we have a feeling that this collaboration will bring his designs to a whole new audience.

Celebrity favourite J Brand (Kate Moss, Cameron Diaz and Katie Holmes are all fans) clearly has a soft spot for all things British - last season the L.A. brand teamed up with Topshop. We can't wait to see what this latest partnership has to offer.
