One (1) size L tshirt from Strellson Mel Ramos Collection (https://www.coma2.com/clients/strellson/newsletter/09-03-13/en/index.html) Fashion meets art: Strellson Sportswear presents the "Mel Ramos Collection" Kreuzlingen, September 2008. - Within the framework of the Spring/Summer 2009 collection, the Swiss fashion and lifestyle company Strellson will be launching a collection with images from the work of the internationally famous pop artist Mel Ramos. The painter, who now lives in Oakland near San Francisco, has painted two pictures of pin-up girls in his typical style, exclusively for Strellson, and has integrated the brands and products very clearly in the images as a whole. This is the first time that a fashion company and one of the last pop artists still painting have cooperated in this way. The collection, which was developed around the two Strellson images, is a homage to Mel Ramos. The two images are found either complete or in variations as a print on different styles in the Strellson sportswear collection: starting with jackets and jeans, then by way of sweatshirts, shirts and T-shirts to bags and shoes. Accessories such as scarves, cufflinks and chains complete the collection. In addition to the two paintings, quotations from earlier work and portraits by Mel Ramos are also used as prints. The colours in the "Mel Ramos Collection" are inspired by the most important phase of pop Art, the 1960s to 1980s. Depending on the delivery date, strong colours like Saxony Blue, Burned Orange, Raspberry Pink, Sunflower, Green and Purple form a contrast to the subdued basic colours of the collection. Limited editions of a leather jacket and of two specially packed high-quality T-shirts showing the two images specially painted for Strellson will be the highlights of the collection. ALL PROCEEDS DIRECTLY BENEFIT THE RAMOS FAMILY FOUNDATION, a 501c3 NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION Strellson creative director Thomas Bellar, a long-time fan, went to an exhibition in 2007 in Vienna and was inspired to approach Ramos to work with the Swiss men’s clothier. Commissioning two paintings, Bellar took the images and reproduced them on 60 different items, including t-shirts, jackets, accessories, and on the back pocket of their denim jean collection. A logo of Ramos’s name, infamous Ramos quotes and a 1970s photo of the artist is combined with the Strellson cross on T-shirts and shoes to round out the collection – an homage to the pop artist. A one-of-a-kind leather jacket with one of the female images recently toured throughout Europe, with most of the Ramos collection found in selected HBC stores and men’s shops across Canada.
