FILA
Court Style with On-Trend Vibes
Fila has partnered with Christopher
Bevans as a guest designer and
creative collaborator on its new
spring tennis line, the Bevans Park
Collection. The second design
collaboration between Fila and
Bevans, this apparel line builds on
the launch of the brand's tennis-
inspired Fila Renno x Bevans
footwear released last September.
Bevans, known for his design
work with streetwear and athletic
brands, as well as for dressing top
athletes and celebrities, is a long-
time tennis fan and tennis player.
In this partnership, the aim is to
merge Fila and Bevans' similar
design aesthetic of creating active-
wear for optimum performance
while maintaining classic and
on-trend silhouettes.
The line is described as featur-
ing "hues that would be vibrant
in the desert sun." The garments
have a nature-inspired palette,
eclectic prints and high perfor-
mance fabrics. In a palette of white,
navy, green, pink, teal and hints
of orange, the collection features
geometric patterns and sonic wave
designs, which are meant to high-
light the expression of energy as it
relates to a player's game.
"As someone who plays the game
myself, I know that designing for
optimum performance is the pri-
ority," says Bevans. "I wanted to
create pieces that would enhance
and not impede on the game, while
at the same time, share my creative
point of view and bring a unique
new style and energy to the court."
The 42-piece collection features
a range of silhouettes including
tennis dresses, tanks, skorts, shorts,
a long sleeve tee, a jacket, and
pants. The Bevans Park Collection
ranges from $60 - $100.
