Narciso Rodriguez Releases Sketches for eBay Collection
eBay confirmed rumors that designer Narciso Rodriguez will introduce an original eight-piece capsule collection on eBay's site. The collection will be sold exclusively through the Narciso Rodriguez eBay Store beginning in Spring 2010. The collection is comprised of eight pieces created in a red, black and white color palette. The collection will be offered at fixed price points from $75 to $350.
"I want to be associated with leaders and I am extremely excited by the possibilities that this new online sales channel brings to my business long term," says Rodriguez. "For me it's always been about dressing many women of all ages, all types, all sizes, and this special collection on eBay is a unique opportunity to reach a broad global audience. I'm as excited about my eBay collection as I am about the one that will be coming down the runway this fall."
In the video clip below, Narciso Rodriquez says he would not be suprised if other designers launch collections on eBay. He mentioned earlier that it is an alternative to doing a diffusion line.
