The Sisley & Milo Manara capsule collection is called Desire. Pieces from the collection feature famous comic strips and beautiful promiscuous heroines.
Milo Manara, a pioneer of erotic elegance in comics and the author of the Kamasutra comic book of 1998, teamed up with Sisley and launched the limited-edition Sisley & Milo Manara line. The sneakers, t-shirts, shorts, mini skirts and bags of the Sisley Manara collection are characterized by the prints of Manara's most famous strips and legendary comic goddesses.
According to Manara, there is a strong relationship between the world of comic books and fashion. Comic books are a fundamental part of popular culture and looking back at them you can clearly recognize the major historic trends of real-life fashion. Clothing was especially important for American comics, as it was a key ingredient of superheroes' identity. Hopefully the sexy, hip, Sisley & Milo Manara collaboration will continue in the future to reinforce the link between cartoons and fashion.
