The Brand
BLLACK NOIR was established in 2008 as a diffusion line from Noir. The Bllack Noir collections present temporary and modern fashion in a wide range of everyday luxury pieces focusing on leather materials, embellished jersey and suiting.
The Mission
The mission of Noir A/S is to be able to provide our customers with luxury fashion based on CSR-principles in all links of the supply chain. Centrally, we aspire to take care of our social and environmental surroundings through our production process.
The brands of Noir A/S strive to adhere to this by complying with the principles of the UN Global Compact, the International Labor Organization and the International Chamber of Commerce as guidelines in all links of the process.
As a luxury brand, our fabrics are primarily sourced from Europe. Manufacturers are chosen based on their commitment to quality and their level of respect for social ethics and the environment. All manufactures are audited on a regular basis to ensure that the above standards are adhered to. In the unlikely event that some fabrics would happen to have been imported from outside the European Community we ask all suppliers for a certificate of origin.
BLLACK NOIR is a sub brand by NOIR. A Diffusion line, which echoes NOIR’s sexy
and sustainable stance on style, designed to appeal to a younger market and
inspired by rock chicks from different decades.
BLLACK NOIR is a collection offering new, innovative and effortless designs.
The look is inspired by rock chicks and is street savvy, allowing for individual styling. An approach which reflects NOIR’s exquisite signature style, but targeted towards a wider
distribution and offers an average retail price of Euro 160.
Young fashion consumers care passionately about corporate social responsibility
and want to look cool at the same time. BLLACK NOIR is turning CSR sexy by
designing trendy products which strive to be ethically correct and unveiled sexy. The designs make a statement in the styling and fabrics as well as in the way they are responsibly produced. BLLACK NOIR will strive to solely use fabrics that are certified in a way that secures that CSR standards such as the ILO Conventions on worker’s rights and environmental sustainability are adhered to. Furthermore, BLLACK NOIR adheres to the principles of the UN Global Compact in our commitment to supporting socio-ethics, environmental responsibility, and sustainable business throughout all links of the production.. www.unglobalcompact.org
“NOIR has carved out a niche, showing that corporate social responsibility can be
embodied by sexy designs. BLLACK NOIR allows for a more price conscious
alternative that is trendy and supports sustainable developments in the Third
World,” says Peter Ingwersen, the founder of NOIR.
Introduction to BLLACK NOIR
Spring / Summer 2011
Inspired by the Rock Goddesses from past, present and future; BLLACK NOIR SS11 pays homage to the modern rock vixens with a futuristic beat.
Fascinated by rock music and infatuated with the look of contemporary rock chicks; BLLACK NOIR designs for the looks and sounds of the new generation.
Taking inspiration from a new rock nobility the BLLACK NOIR SS11 collection is designed around tight leather juxtaposed against softly colored feminine silk prints and sharp tailored suiting with broken glass adornments for the change from beach to club.
Summers of rock festivals inspired a dominant part of BLLACK NOIR SS11, worn out jerseys in pigment dyes; sun bleached leather in faded whites and heavy embellished eco t-shirts reflects the rays of the sun. Hooded jerseys and sweats protect against the weather and oozes of coolness and gives sportswear a revival in the rock styling.
Going from day into night; club suiting with metallic shimmer delivers discipline and sexy foil printed leather sets the scene for the evening in flirtatious, razor sharp silhouettes.
Futuristic cut-lines on leggings adorned with leather details juxtaposing organic and fair traded soft cottons out of Africa, creating silhouettes inspired by second hand bargains; offering a modern rock look.
Slightly transparent fabrics allow for triangular, futuristic prints to expose sun kissed skin. Cotton, jersey and leather shorts expose the legs revealing lightning bolts and access to back stage.
Colors of the collection range from dirty whites, mellow yellows, soft rose nuances and air blues. Flirting with bright shades of tropical aqua green and kissable pink lip shades, set of against dramatic black, steely grey and a myriad of shiny silver colors.
Rock is forever; rock music from past, present and future will always inspire BLLACK NOIR.
