This time they are taking inspiration from the Mexican maestro himself Guillermo Del Toro and his gothic ghost story Crimson Peak!

From the Press Release
LOS ANGELES, CA (December 22nd, 2023) - Renowned Los Angeles-based apparel company and high-end Gothic fashion house La Femme en Noir is thrilled to announce an exclusive fashion collaboration with Legendary Entertainment, bringing to life the hauntingly beautiful aesthetics of Guillermo del Toro's iconic 2015 feature film, Crimson Peak. The much-anticipated PRE-ORDERS for this unique collection is set to launch on December 22nd, 2023.
“Crimson Peak is a lush and atmospheric gothic ghost tale, which thoroughly fits our brand,” says Lynh Haaga, co-owner and designer of La Femme en Noir. “Every time I re-watched the film for inspiration, I was struck by the cohesive attention to detail, the thematic elements of costume, color, and set design, and the visceral impact of its visuals. From the living house itself to the stunning Victorian costumes, Crimson Peak is rife with all of the elements that we hold dear as designers - gothic romance with a hint of the macabre.”
“We are excited to be working with Legendary again after our collaboration with them for our sister brand Vixen,” says Micheline Pitt, co-owner and designer of La Femme en Noir.“With all of our collections and collaborations, we look to films or franchises that we love personally. We want each film to invoke the same aesthetic as our brands, often filled with elaborate world-building, costumes, and a dark gothic beauty that speaks to us. Crimson Peak features such rich visuals and costumes so beautifully draped in horror that it felt like a perfect fit for our brand. We are excited to expand our offering of Victorian-inspired pieces with this new collection, as we welcome you to Allerdale Hall.”
"We're thrilled about La Femme en Noir's collaboration with Legendary, capturing the haunting beauty of Guillermo del Toro's Crimson Peak. This collection mirrors the film's meticulous detail and gothic romance, showcasing our commitment to narrative-inspired fashion – a perfect blend of dark allure and elegance,” said Amber Sheppo, EVP, Global Brand Strategy, Legendary Entertainment.
