LOVE FILA by Marion Bartoli S/S’16 Collection

Earlier this year, the world got its first glimpse of LOVE FILA, a limited-edition collection of women’s tennis styles designed by former Wimbledon champion, Marion Bartoli in collaboration with sportswear company, FILA. It wasn’t long before the collection caught the eye of tennis athletes and fashion lovers alike, who were particularly drawn in by the clothing’s colourful graphics, unique designs, and overall versatility. In May, the line made its on-court debut on tennis athlete Jelena Jankovic, who sported the “Court Central” dress at the BNP Italian Open in Rome. And now, LOVE FILA is making its debut in a number of specialty retail locations around the globe.

Ever since the collection made its global debut on April 15th in the US, LOVE FILA has made its way to a number of select international locations, including stores in Paris, Berlin, Hong Kong and China. The collection kicked off its series of international launches at the BHV Marais in Marion’s home city of Paris, France on May 15th with an exclusive event on the store’s rooftop terrace that included a meet-and-greet with Marion, herself. Over the next few weeks, LOVE FILA is scheduled to make special debuts at Harrod’s and Selfridge’s in London, as well as at Neiman Marcus in New York. Additional launches will also take place in Brazil, Japan, and South Korea.
