Archival Karen Walker pieces are being updated and re-released

Words by Tara Smith

Made over.

For the first time ever, Karen Walker is joining forces with US denim label Madewell.

The collaboration sees Madewell given free reign over Karen Walker’s back catalogue from the last two decades, breathing new life into heritage pieces.

23 designs have received the Madewell makeover, culminating in denim styles in new washes, belted jumpsuits, dresses, skirts and more. Archival floral prints have also been reimagined in new colourways like mystic yellow, violet tint and champagne.

Three new exclusive sunglasses also join the drop, including an updated pink colourway of Karen Walker’s iconic Helter Skelter frames, plus two brand new styles.

The collection is available online now at Karen Walker.
