Designed in collaboration with Repetto, a luxury French ballet shoemaker, the Fiat 500 by Repetto incorporates the classic stylings of the Fiat 500 while taking in the warm spirit and timeless elegance of ballet. Designed with aesthetics as a focus, the Fiat 500 by Repetto resonates Italian automotive creativity and the delicacy of dance. Offered in a deep shade of Bordeaux Opera, the paint is meant to symbolize the ivory silhouette of a ballet dancer paying homage to Repetto. This idea of the ivory silhouette is further resonated in the car's ivory interior which blends seamlessly with the tobacco-colored Poltrona Frau Leather upholstery.
The Fiat 500 by Repetto is just the latest collaboration for Fiat, who had previously worked with the likes of Star Wars and Guerlain for its limited-edition model campaigns.
