Debenhams launches Jenni Falconer sports range
UK department store Debenhams has announced the launch of a new women’s sportswear range, XPG by Jenni Falconer, designed by the Scottish television personality and sports enthusiast, which will go into 36 stores and online.
XPG (cross performance gear) by Jenni Falconer will be the first celebrity own-bought collection for the department store.
The sportswear collection was designed by marathon runner and ‘This Morning’ presenter, Jenni Falconer “to combine performance and style in a fashionable, feminine way”. The 35 pieces feature bright, bold colours and functional fabrics, and include reflective prints, moisture-wicking and breathable fabrics, mesh panelling and MP3 compatible pouches.
Adam Creasey, trading director for Debenhams said: “By enlisting Jenni Falconer, we have been able to create a functional, flattering range that’s as wearable in the gym as at home.”
Jenni Falconer said: “I’ve always looked for a sportswear line that really works for my lifestyle and caters to my needs. I put a lot of thought into what practical features would make training that little bit easier – the locker key pockets and iPod pouches are small details that make a big difference. I love that I can wear this range at the gym, for cycling, walking, running, yoga classes, using workout DVDs or just for relaxing at home.”
