Felix the Cat returns to the catwalk

Italian designer Alessandro Enriquez launches new capsule collection featuring character.

Felix the Cat is continuing to attract high-end fashion collaborations, with the latest seeing the character feature in a new capsule collection from Italian designer Alessandro Enriquez.

The partnership with Universal Brand Development will preview at the 93rd edition of Pitti Uomo, the international event for men’s fashion and lifestyle projects.

The collaboration was brokered by CPLG Italy.

Felix the Cat is reimagined, thanks to Alessandro’s ironic and Italian signature, throughout different apparel items, such as sweatshirts, t-shirts, knitwear and shirts, to create an ‘irreverent and joyful’ capsule collection.

Items will be available to purchase from September.

Alessandro is also working on a limited edition Felix the Cat t-shirt collection, to be sold exclusively in the Milanese boutique Banner during Saint Valentine week as part of a charity event.

This is the latest in a line of collaborations in the fashion space for Felix the Cat.

Castelbajac Paris, Coach, Scotch & Soda and most recently London-based design label Fyodor Golan have all also worked with the character.
