LivingSocial Releases New “Malibu Collection” From Isaac Mizrahi and Chevrolet Malibu

Limited-Edition Fashion Collection Available Through LivingSocial’s Shop Beginning Oct. 16

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- LivingSocial today announced the reveal of renowned fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi’s “Malibu Collection” that is inspired by the all-new 2013 Chevrolet Malibu. The new collection will be sold in limited quantities exclusively on LivingSocial’s Shop, the company’s first foray into physical products featuring themed collections of unique, curated merchandise.

“LivingSocial is always on the hunt for unique offers to share with our members and Isaac Mizrahi’s collection for Malibu is exactly that,” said Mitch Spolan, SVP of National Sales at LivingSocial. “Our members are on top of the latest trends and products, but are savvy with their wallets. This stylish and smart attitude mirrors that of the woman Mizrahi designs for as well as the Chevy Malibu owner.”

Inspired by some of the all-new Malibu’s most striking features, the specific pieces of the collection are:

  • Malibu Driving Moccasin ($110): Made in Napa leather, with a quilted, cushioned insole. The color was inspired by the Malibu’s Crystal Red Tintcoat color.
  • Malibu Blouse ($140): Blouse with robin’s egg blue silk crepe. Hidden buttons and pocket complete this piece.
  • Malibu Leather Jacket ($298): Buttery-soft black leather jacket with quilted detailing, interior blue contrast piping and a slightly fitted structure that resembles the contrast stitching on the seats.
  • Malibu Double-Handle Tote Bag ($260): Rich saturated cobalt blue bag in pebble leather with black interior and blue piping along the zipper.
  • Malibu Colored Skinny Jean ($73): Coated, poppy red color with a touch of stretch to conform to any body type.
  • Malibu Oversized Boyfriend Watch ($110): The watch’s blue face is inspired by the Malibu’s interior light, and it’s complemented by silvertone detailing.

In addition to the new Malibu, Mizrahi’s collection was inspired by stylish and accomplished women across the country. Mizrahi made stops in New York, Chicago, Miami and Los Angeles to gather style input from women who embody the essence of the new Malibu owner. The women not only influenced the final collection, but also inspired tailored LivingSocial offers for their favorite hometown restaurants and shops.

Style enthusiasts can find out more information about the Malibu Collection at www.chevymalibustyle.com and facebook.com/IsaacMizrahi. The web special features an exclusive look at the creation of the Malibu Collection, including each of the women Mizrahi met with to help inspire the collection. Visitors to the site can view a series of videos, use the Polyvore mini-editor tool to create their own Malibu-inspired fashion collages and share them with their friends.
