Pringle of Scotland, Central Saint Martins, Tilda Swinton and the Corner.com



Pringle of Scotland debuts on thecorner.com with a bang, delivering a variety of 
special and exclusive new projects that meld its erstwhile tradition and technical 
innovation. 
In chronological order, starting from the end of November, Pringle of Scotland debuts on 
thecorner.com with the Pringle Archive Collection in partnership with the renowned Central Saint Martin’s College of Art and Design that further enhances Pringle’s commitment to promoting and supporting emerging talent. Under the direction of Louise Wilson OBE, one of the world’s most influential fashion educators, a group of MA students mined the  archives of the 196-year-old Scottish knitwear company to produce a range of men’s and women’s looks that meld past and future. thecorner.com will present the collaboration with an exclusive video interview with Louise Wilson. 
In mid-December, it’s the turn of the much anticipated Spring Summer 2012 Resort 
collection, the first by new Design Director Alistair Carr, who reinterprets Pringles’ iconic argyle patterns and twinsets with abstract motifs and vivid colors. Alistair Carr, formerly at Balenciaga, will appear in an exclusive video interview conducted by award-winning actress Tilda Swinton, who also fronts the advertising campaign. You can watch the video here.
Last but not least thecorner.com will gift one of Carr’s graphic and computer-elaborated 
motifs in green and grey will in fact appear on an exclusive T-shirt called Pixel to 
worldwide customers  that purchase the Pringle collections on thecorner.com.
   
That is a great collaboration between CSM (where i graduated from), Pringle of Scotland and thecorner.com! Well done!
