Tecovas and Los Angeles-based fashion brand Anine Bing are joining forces on a limited-edition collection featuring two boot styles and a range of accessories. The Austin-based Western brand announced the collaboration on Wednesday.
The footwear offering reworks Tecovas’ women’s Loretta and Jamie silhouettes. The Loretta is made from polished goat leather, with embroidery and star inlays along its 17-inch shaft, a star-motif toe and a French-seamed topline. The Jamie has an 11-inch shaft, a round toe and eight-row stitching, alongside star embroidery and an Anine Bing star toe bug. Both styles are handcrafted with a hung leather lining.
The collection also includes two cowboy hat styles and two belts. One of the belts, the Anine Bing x Tecovas Plaque Buckle Belt, is exclusive to the U.S. It is made in Mexico from genuine cowhide leather and features a 1.5-inch width and an antique-nickel engraved plaque buckle.
Tecovas senior vice president of brand marketing Samantha Fodrowski said the brands’ design and craftsmanship approaches made the collaboration a natural fit. Anine Bing chief executive Julie Bourgeois described Tecovas as authentic and rooted in Western tradition, saying the partnership brings together the brands’ distinct identities.
The collection will be available November 5 at Tecovas.com, Aninebing.com and select retail locations. Prices range from $180 to $525.
