This means we can expect to see the line being used backstage at high-profile international shows, and we can’t wait to see how he’ll infuse his Parisian cool into the all-American—and, let’s be honest, coveted by our grandmothers—brand. His first collection hits counters next spring. [WWD]

The collection launches today and will be available for the month of September.
