Press Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 15, 2014 Equiline Portrays Bold Colors, Classic Elegance and High Tech Performance among its Moods for Fall Equestrian Apparel It s hard to believe the waning summer breezes will soon give way to cooler air and fall foliage. Competition season so abundant across the nation during summer leads to regional and national finals as we begin to move indoors. New champions are crowned and so too new equestrian fashion abounds. Autumn is a very exciting time in equestrian sport. Equiline, a leader in equestrian apparel design, welcomes dropping temperatures and falling leaves as an indicator to launch its latest Fall / Winter 2014-15 collection. The design team at Equiline with a focus on what s trending in general fashion and on performance enhancement through high technology innovations launches its latest line in five distinct moods: Jackie show coat in black with apple green and Adam high performance breech in white.
Class & Attraction: Prince of Wales plaid delicately sculpted onto technical fabrics and nylon solids with hints of plaid trim give way to an elegantly preppy and classical look. Breeches with all over plaid for her, Elvie, and for him, Theo, or perhaps just a patch on pockets and trim are very much in style this season. Partnered with the oh-so comfortable second skin Jasmine that provides moisture wicking and warmth is a must for cool mornings this fall. The latter is available in four colors; white, apple green, Havana brown and sky blue all with a striking copper thread detailed stitching. Paige thermal jacket with bubble trim and Bea X-Grip breeches in denim. Sara quilted bomber in Atlantic deep and Evie full-seat breeches in Prince of Wales plaid in Baltic blue.
Les Broideries: the embroideries provide extra refinement and timeless elegance to beautiful silhouettes. Intricate craftsmanship creates very feminine design as noted on the Annabel innovative 3-layer softshell jacket with side panels and across the shoulder fine stitching that creates a soft and graceful appeal. Annabel comes in blackcurrant, cyclamen and apple green. The Rosy show shirt has gorgeous embroidered detail between the shoulders for a bit of surprise when the show coat is removed. Embroidery can be sporty too when paired with the youthfulness of a luxurious cotton hoodie as seen on the Mia in blue night with contrasting ivory stitching. Mia cotton hoodie in blue night, Jasmine second skin shirt in white, and Evie full-seat breeches in Baltic blue. Annabel softshell jacket in cyclamen with Ash X-Grip breeches in Navy.
THINK BIG: bold effects and oversized ton-sur-ton (tone-on-tone) logos create excitement and enthusiasm. Use of color blocking is still trending with this mood as well. The Logan men s quilted vest is an example of thinking big, water resistant, windproof, highly breathable for comfort and coming in three distinct color ways; Havana brown, Baltic blue and blue night. Logan men s vest in blue night, Amos sweatshirt in blue/apple green, and Theo breeches in grey.
HIGH PERFORMANCE: function is the name of the game; making athletic apparel with comfort and performance in mind. Technical fabrics, anatomic cuts, and high stretch inserted panels that allow extreme flexibility, reducing restriction while still offering a close conforming fit. Elastic panels that run the full length of the breeches provide an added benefit of compression to help minimize muscle fatigue. The Leah breech for her comes in five color ways for fall; dark orange, olive green, Havana brown, Baltic blue and white all with Equiline patented X-Grip for stability. The Olivia show coat for her is highlighted by edgy, geometric cuts that are trend forward combined with a slightly fuller fit to allow comfort and good range of motion. This show coat is available in navy, black, grey, Bordeaux and dark green allowing the rider multiple options. Loretta polar microfleece jacket in black and Leah high performance breeches in white. Olivia show coat in Bordeaux; Rosy show shirt in beige; Ash X- Grip breech in beige.
Colors: Gone are the muted dark tones typically known for fall fashion. This autumn general fashion celebrates color and allows the shades more typical of summer to carry through so you can layer upon your most fond summer pieces to create the warmth you need into fall with matching tones. Most popular are jewel tones; plus sunny yellow, red and various shades of green. Neon is still a focus but subdued as accents is what s trending. Jackie the Equiline sporty show coat for men has the perfect hint of apple green neon piping along the collar to demonstrate what s popular now. A predicted best seller is Equiline s packable, proprietary LightDown, ultralight weight vest for her and him as Tilly and Owen respectively. Cheerful colors for both genders come in yellow, orange, blackcurrant, apple green, blue night and sky blue. For the colder days of winter this item also comes in a full sleeve, hooded jacket for both men and women. Owen vest in orange, Eugenio polar microfleece jacket in black, and Adam X-Grip breeches in white. Tilly vest in apple green; Loretta polar microfleece jacket in black; and Leah high performance breeches in white. Milly down jacket in sky blue and Penelope breeches in white.
