I wanted to share with you what is quite possibly the cutest collaboration, ever: Peanuts x LACOSTE. LACOSTE is partnering with the beloved PEANUTS cartoon gang for limited-edition apparel available at all US boutiques and online. The iconic characters (Snoopy, Charlie Brown, etc) are celebrating their 65th birthday this year and are also releasing a new 3D wide release animation “The Peanuts Movie” via 20th Century Fox.
Snoopy, Charlie Brown, Lucy and Linus, 4 well-loved characters of the world’s most popular comic strip, team up with the crocodile for a series of mischievous games: Snoopy can be seen crocodile fishing from his doghouse rooftop while Linus gently wrestles the reptile for his blanket, Lucy – ever the perfectionist – talks the croc into a game of tennis and Charlie Brown’s birdie meets a surprising end, caught in the famous toothsome jaw seen popping out of the hole. Hayato Kohama, director of Special Product Design Inc and creative advisor and overall coordinator for the Peanuts line, thinks “The Lacoste crocodile would fit right in with the Peanuts gang”.
Embroideries immortalizing these 4 sketches adorn the emblematic polo which comes in 3 colors – white, navy and chiné grey for adults and white, pink and chiné grey for children – as well as a navy sweatshirt. These would make such great holiday gifts! I think the Lucy polo and Snoopy sweatshirt are my faves…
