Street fashion hipsters, Colette are celebrating their 10th anniversary by collaborating with fellow French label Lacoste for their new spring range.  Combining the Lacoste croc and Colette pooches Caperino and Peperone, the collection features limited-edition trainers and a series of 14 polo shirts. 

ìTo see our dear Caperino and Peperone play with the big brands is one of our little personal pleasures,î said Colette art director Sarah Lerfel.  The trainers feature two different designs, one with Cap & Pep chasing the crocodile on one foot, and the croc chasing Cap & Pep on the other.  The inside lining and laces feature a specially printed logo, ëCaperino & Peperone Love Lacosteí. 

The Lacoste polo range features 14 different designs each telling a small part of a bigger story of how the crocodile and the dogs met.  Leaving its iconic position on top of the heart, the crocodile walks around your shirt, and depending on what polo you buy, he could be sitting on your shoulder or tucked under the collar.  Itís fun, fresh and doesnít take itself too seriously.  Maybe other brands might want to take note. The polos will cost you 140 euros and the trainers 120.  So, what are you waiting for? By Matthew Hussey
