Gwen Stefani brings rock chick style to the slopes with new ski-wear line (and there's No Doubt it'll stand out in the snow!)
|
Gwen Stefani has collaborated with Burton to bring her label's unique signature look to ski-wear.
L.A.M.B. for Burton is intended to be 'superflattering', the 43-year-old No Doubt singer told WWD.
The collection includes waterproof parkas, vests, pants and beanies, all featuring rock chic details like oversized zippers, bright colors and bold prints.

'We tried to mix masculine and feminine, which we always do,' the mother-of-two explained.
The snowboarding pants, for example, have 'a really cute fit... [and] a tuxedo stripe for that edge.'
She admitted that designing the ten-piece collection was a far cry from creating her main womenswear line.
'The clothing itself is really technical,' she explained. 'We haven’t done that before so it was a new challenge.'
Edgy influences: The collaboration features parkas, pants, vests and beanies with L.A.M.B.'s signature street-style details, like Rasta stripes (left) and houndstooth prints (right)
Take a bow: Ms Stefani, 42 - pictured here on the Spring 2011 L.A.M.B. runway with adorable son Kingston Rossdale - launched her fashion label in 2006
She clearly delivered on both fashion
and function though. Burton's chief creative officer Greg Dacyshyn
called the resulting collaboration 'a unique mash-up
of Gwen’s bold style combined with on-mountain functionality.'
Ms. Stefani - who has been married to Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale for 11 years - launched L.A.M.B. in 2006.
The fashion label's signature street-style details and Jamaican influences can be seen in her new line, which features military quilting, houndstooth print and Rastafarian-style stripes.
The collection will be available in stores and on Burton.com in September.
