The Kipling x Wicked Collection is headed to the UK thanks to a collaboration with Universal Pictures to get fans excited for the upcoming release of Wicked.
The collection draws inspiration from the themes of the musical and movie including empowerment, equality, defiance and sisterhood. The collection thus features the brand's signature totes, backpacks and crossbody bags given a Wicked-inspired overhaul to play with pink and green hues. The collection features the Kipling and Wicked logos printed on a 100% recycled nylon fabric interior alongside a silicon Wicked logo, while the brand's signature monkey mascot has been transformed in pink and green colors.
The Kipling x Wicked Collection will be available exclusively online starting October 30, 2024 starting at £29.
