Kip&Co Drops Second Jenny Kee Collector’s Edition
For over five decades, Australian fashion designer Jenny Kee has captivated the country – and the zeitgeist – with her pioneering design. Now, for the second time, Kip&Co has partnered with the iconic designer to bring her bold, artistic expression, to its all new collection.
Created in collaboration with Kee, the Collector’s Edition offers a fresh take on the designer’s instantly recognisable knitwear, combined with Kip&Co’s signature style.
“We’re incredibly proud to share this second, very special Kip&Co x Jenny Kee release—a celebration of both Jenny and the wondrous Australian environment her art has championed for over fifty years,” says Kip&Co co-founder Kate Heppell.
“Jenny is a true force—fearless, innovative, and utterly unique. She paved the way for bold, expressive prints in Australian fashion, and we deeply admire her trailblazing spirit. She’s always pushed the boundaries, and that’s exactly what we aim to do at Kip&Co.”
The limited release will feature all-new pieces, including a range of knitwear inspired by Kee’s iconic ’80s prints, a throw that doubles as art, and for the first time – printed velvet bedding and sleepwear – all designed to showcase Kee’s unmistakable passion for colour, character and our natural world.
Additionally, inspired by Kee’s unwavering dedication to sustainability, Kip&Co will donate $5 from every Earth First t-shirt sold in the first week to the Wilderness Society.
With exclusive new prints, luxe fabrics and a modern take on knitwear classics, the collection is a must for fashion and design lovers – that is – if you can get your hands on the pieces before they sell out.
