Petra Ecclestone, youngest daughter of Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone, has announced the launch of FORM, an elegant, sophisticated and exquisitely engineered new luxury menswear collection.

Set to make a huge splash when it arrives in stores this autumn, the range will combine fresh, modern tailoring with directional design. The glamorous collection’s source of inspiration is none other than the heady and alluring world of Formula One.

Based on sleek lines contoured to the body and made from the highest quality materials including Nappa leather and Alpaca, the Formula One Influence is apparent, yet understated throughout the entire collection. In the same way that Formula One is the pinnacle of the motorsports industry, being successful on the track requires a combination of highly skilled; innovative engineers and state-of-the-art materials, each piece from the FORM collection will be subject to the same unparalleled level of engineering and attention to detail.

Key pieces will include cashmere coats; fine knit high neck jumpers, cashmere cord trousers as well as the more casual tie waist trousers and chunky knit jumpers. The colour palette will be muted and natural with earthy rich tones of browns, greys and greens and luxurious creams.
