Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does whatever a spider can. That’s right, Spider-Man can do anything from catching thieves with his web, swinging from place to place, to collaborating with fashion brands. As you all know, with great power comes great responsibility, and sometimes, great accessories.
Charlotte Olympia announced on Instagram that the brand will be teaming up with Marvel to create a Spider-Man themed collection to celebrate the upcoming release of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming. The Instagram video features comic-like illustrations of the web-slinger saving the day as the accessories from the collection makes its debut amongst a chaotic setting in New York City.
It’s not surprising why Charlotte Olympia decided to tap on the world’s most iconic red and blue suited hero, as the brand itself is a fan of wispy cobwebs and kitty cats. The collection includes a round purse and a pair of velvet red slip-ons, featuring the very recognisable Charlotte Olympia “Kitty” cat, donning the iconic Spider-Man head mask. Other items include a semi-circular transparent clutch bag with a spider motif and tassel detailing, and a pair of black velvet lace-up trainers with the spider web embroidered at the lateral and at the tongue.
Our favourite creation from the collection is the Super Octavia, which is a platform sandal made of black suede and an intricate cob web detailing. But we’re stuck in a sticky situation as it does come with a hefty price tag at US$1,575. Perhaps, we shall just catch the movie just to show our support. Oh wait, we already did. Oops.
