Vixen by Micheline Pitt has collaborated with Universal Products & Experiences to release one of the coolest summer collections we’ve seen. The Creature From the Black Lagoon Summer 2024 collection coincides with the film’s 70th anniversary. Obvious highlights from the collection include a beautiful reproduction of Julie Adams’ iconic white bathing suit and the Creature bag.
“Whether you’re a devoted fan of vintage horror films or a fashion aficionado, our Creature From the Black Lagoon collection offers a unique fusion of film history and vintage aesthetics with a contemporary design,” said Vixen CEO & Designer Micheline Pitt of the collaboration, itself a celebration of the seminal 1954 film and the titular creature at its center, famously designed by Budd Westmore and Millicent Patrick. “Our goal was for fans to be able to immerse themselves in the magic of classic cinema with these iconic looks, brought to life for the modern wardrobe.”
The collection also includes button-up shirts and dresses featuring the same design.
“Dive into the depths of classic horror and timeless style with our newest collection, a thrilling collaboration with Vixen by Micheline Pitt. Celebrate the legacy of Universal Monsters and the 70th anniversary of Creature From the Black Lagoon with meticulously crafted replica pieces and stunning digital wet prints featuring iconic art from the original film movie posters,” said Holly Goline, -Vice President, Dark Universe at Universal Pictures.
“This collection pays homage to the iconic wardrobe worn in the film which remains etched in cinematic history. Each piece reflects the elegance and allure of the costumes and vintage fashion of the era of the film from the unforgettable white one-piece swimsuit to the sophisticated 1050s silhouettes that defined the character’s style.”
“Each collection, like the films on which they are based, has its own story to tell, and its own style, and as one of the first female owned fashion brands to have ever licensed a horror property,” stated Pitt, “we’re excited to celebrate Creature From the Black Lagoon through fashion, having been a lifelong fan of the Universal Monsters.”
Regarding the continued expansion of Vixen by Micheline Pitt, an apparel company with a global consumer base which has grown exponentially since its founding in 2016, Pitt shared, “Unlike most brands, we are privately owned and believe in quality over quantity. We pride ourselves in being a part of slow fashion, making items that can be cared for and worn for years to come.”
