The Michael Kors x ellesse collection consists of 24 must-haves. Nostalgia wins out as the fashion brands reference popular motifs of the 1970s before modernizing them with a contemporary point of view. All of the pieces, from the tracksuit to the footwear to the accessories such as a backpack, have an athletic vibe. Meanwhile, a new logo for the capsule juxtaposes a prominent MK with an orange and red tennis ball from ellesse to create an attractive blending of the brands.
