Bugaboo + Missoni Partnership
For the first time, Bugaboo is announcing a partnership with Italian fashion house Missoni. The collaboration represents the innovative and functional design personalities of Bugaboo, and the contemporary approach towards fashion and design by Missoni.
The Bugaboo + Missoni collection features two tailored designs one for the Bugaboo Cameleon, and another to complement the Bugaboo Bee. Vibrant zigzags decorate the canopy of the Bugaboo Bee, while the Bugaboo Cameleon canopy is covered in a bright block print. Both designs also come with a matching Missoni knitted blanket, which can also be worn as a scarf by parents. All of the collection is made in Italy with the signature luxury of Missoni's craftsmanship and quality.
Angela Missoni, co-owner of Missoni S.p.A: "It was a great joy to work on this project. Children are so sensitive to colours and patterns. Working with Bugaboo has given me a unique opportunity to create a dream stroller that I hope will be enjoyed by children and will stimulate their senses."
Madeleen Klaasen, Bugaboo CMO: "At Bugaboo we always aim for exciting unexpected collaborations. We feel privileged to be working with Missoni, this partnership combines excellence and innovation in stroller design combined with the unmistakable bright colour patterns of Missoni".
The connection is illustrated in an Optical Art inspired world showcasing Missoni's mesmerising prints and Bugaboo's directional design. The photographs are supported with an optical illusion movie starring Bugaboo + Missoni featuring music by Monk Higgins.
