Judith Leiber, Ashley Longshore Launch Second Collab

Luxury brand Judith Leiber has unveiled its second collaboration with pop artist Ashley Longshore.

The minaudières in the new collection include “I’ll Pick Up the Tab,” “Optimism for the Win,” and “War and Peace for the Ladies.”

As with the first capsule, the handbags were designed in partnership with J Dee Ocleppo Hilfiger, creative director and co-owner, Judith Leiber’s creative director and co-owner.

“We’re thrilled to once again work with Ashley Longshore, whose provocative artwork is an intersection of pop culture and social issues captured in a unique and satirical way,” says Hilfiger. “Each clutch is inspired by one of her existing pieces and amplified with thousands of Swarovski crystals in Judith Leiber’s signature style.”

“I am enthralled, excited and so happy to be collaborating with Judith Leiber for a second time. The world needs these sparkling, happy, fun conversation pieces now more than ever,” says Longshore. “Much more than just a handbag, these limited edition works of art hold a story. My new collection is about optimism, the power of a gesture and a bold statement about a woman’s power to make her own money.”
