ORLEBAR BROWN - Satellite Photography‏

This season, Orlebar Brown have taken the Earth in all its natural beauty as the inspiration for their prints and patterns.

 Aerial and satellite imagery of rivers, roads, mountains and cityscapes from the Earth Observatory Project blend into something surreal and exciting. Orlebar Brown overlooks the wonders of Abu Dhabi with its beautiful blue waters, bustle of city life and not to be missed Ferrari World.

Orlebar Brown x Emilio Pucci Collaboration

Emilio Pucci and Orlebar Brown announce their brand collaboration for Spring 2015.

The twenty piece collection for men and women re-connects Pucci with its roots in resort-style menswear, and for Orlebar Brown explores the timeless allure of the Italian jet set.

Tailored swim shorts, an Orlebar Brown speciality, are at the core of the offering.
 Featuring small geometrics pulled from the Pucci archives, the patterns re-open the doors to an exciting and less visible period in Pucci’s great print history.

Abirinto print

Though the colour blocking and magnetic swirls of the 1950s and 1960s are today the best known of the Marquis Emilio Pucci’s expansive print oeuvre, these unusual, tightly formatted graphics - from the late 1960s and 70s - offer a totally fresh approach to the house’s signature pattern.
