Nordstrom Partners With Summit Entertainment For 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' Merchandise
If you were wondering who else you could rely upon besides Hot Topic to provide your The Twilight Saga: New Moon apparel, wonder no more.
A very recent press release has just let us know that Nordstrom, "one of the nation's leading fashion specialty retailers . . . located in 28 states" just "partnered with Summit Entertainment to launch an exclusive fashion and jewelry collection inspired" by The Twilight Saga: New Moon.
According to the press release,
Created by Awake, Inc., the apparel collection centers around fitted screened T-shirts, tanks and hoodies that reflect the mood and spirit of the film. Twilight fans can choose from designs that show their affinity for vampire Edward Cullen with a "Team Edward" logo or werewolf Jacob Black with a "Team Jacob" logo. Other T-shirts feature film-related lines such as "Bet You Can't Read My Mind" and imagery such as "Forks High School Phys. Ed. Dept." and the tattoo design worn by the werewolf pack. Plaid tunics and jackets inspired by the style and setting of the film round out the lifestyle collection. Prices range from $32 for a T-shirt to $58 for a jacket.
The collection of silver and gold-plated fashion jewelry created by Nordstrom includes necklaces, bracelets, earrings and key fobs. "I love Edward" and "I love Jacob" heart pendants hang from chains, and bracelets and key fobs feature film-related charms including Bella's truck, Jacob's motorcycle, vampire family crests, a moon, wolf and feather.
"We hope to bring the Twilight experience into our stores through fashion for our customers," said Loretta Soffe, Nordstrom executive vice president and general merchandise manager for women's apparel. "The line allows customers to show their love for the film by creating a whole look with pieces from the collection or combining with other merchandise to create a unique look of their own."
Beginning July 23, customers can count down to the premiere of The Twilight Saga: New Moon at [their website]. Nordstrom stores will host kick-off events in November for customers to celebrate the film, including advance screening parties.
