Baby it’s Gold Outside….
Fila Gold unveils the latest Autumn Winter 2008 collection

Fila, the iconic Italian sportswear brand, continues to bring a more directional edge to sports fashion with its Gold collection for Autumn Winter 2008. Fila Gold adds luxury fabrics including cashmere and merino wool as well as a sprinkling of new seasonal colours including snorkel blue and pillar box red to sports inspired pieces. The collection is comprised of sleek silhouettes such as tailored polos and slim fit cardigans alongside more fashion forward jackets and zip ups. Attention to detail remains paramount; with subtle touches creating a contemporary collection that remains true to Fila’s heritage.

Key pieces for this season include:
A twist on the 80s cagoule, the Zandvoort jacket is perfect for the transition from autumn into winter. This cagoule is given a modern twist with logo motif patterning across the upper section fusing luxe styling with retro fashion.

Brands Hatch is a new take on knitwear for Gold. Boasting sharp and angular stripes across the chest, this v-neck jumper brings an 80s aesthetic to classic knitwear.

Fila’s signature retro styling is epitomised in this season’s quilted biker jacket, Daytona. Wetlook fabric and rouched detailing marry Fila’s heritage with a fashion forward urban look.

The Nurburgring jacket is a new silhouette for Fila Gold and its quilted tartan lining makes it the most substantial winter jacket from Fila this season. With zipped and button down pockets the Nurburgring is perfect for city slickers and even for a weekend in the country.

Paying homage to the glory days of the 70s, the slim fit Watkins polo is the ultimate in playboy styling. A striking retro colour palette is combined with a fine merino knit, making sure the Watkins is wardrobe must have for the man about town.

Fila Gold is an Italian inspired collection that fuses luxury fabrics with sports styling.
