60s inspiration
from Lambretta
To those around in the 1960’s the name Lambretta
is synonymous with the original modmobile, the
Lambretta scooter, and the disctinctive Italian
influenced style of that era. This heritage and atti-
tude underpins the Lambretta fashion label, which
has been established for more than a decade, first
bursting onto the UK fashion scene in 1997.
Lambretta’s Spring/Summer 2010 range is a col-
lection of classic mod-inspired pieces including
pieces such as mini collar polo shirts, retro-fit
shirts and fine guage vintage knitwear. These
are mixed with logo T-shirts and slim-fit denims,
which are available in various washes and comple-
mented by a full range of accessories.”
