Louis Wong for A.P.C. Capsule Collection Preview

Designer Louis Wong, having previously worked on his own Louis W. sub-label, which is financed, developed and distributed by A.P.C., is set to introduce his debut collection for the French flagship later this year. Utilizing the iconic leather jacket as the basis for the designs, the line will consist of three different styles: an aviator, a motorcycle jacket, and a bomber. Constructed of premium deerskin, traditionally used for gloves, the jackets also incorporate the use of lambswool, beaver fur and heavy Harris Tweed. Completed with Talon Zippers, the Sorbonne-educated designer’s A.P.C. capsule collection for Fall/Winter 2012 is set to debut in October.
