Covered in Canaries. Never a Flaw

By Nicoletta LoPresti

Selfridges, one of London’s most iconic shopping spots, has called on an elite group of designers to celebrate turning 100 years old this month.

Marc Jacobs, Ralph Lauren, Jimmy Choo, Mulberry, and more have designed exclusive pieces for Selfridges birthday, all in the store’s (and thankgodimfamous.com) signature color: canary yellow Pantone 109.

Marc Jacobs has reworked one of his signature must-have ‘Stam” bags (named after the model Jessica Stam), from Giles comes a patent leather dress in the pantone 109 shade, and classically cool Converse gifted them with canary Chuck Taylors. Guiseppe Zanotti added serious stilettos in a killer lemon x black color combo  while Mulberry has created a patent yellow edition of its much-loved Bayswater bag. On the tech side, BlackBerry Bolds were redesigned with a leather back-plate in Selfridges shade.

The centenarian Oxford Street mega store will retail the limited edition collection of pieces starting May 2009. A summer of events, including the Big Yellow Festival of music, fashion and variety every weekend in May, will be topped off by a retrospective exhibition from May 2 to August 31.
