As you may recall, designer Kate Spade was found dead in her apartment in New York City. According to police reports, the admired designer killed herself by hanging herself with a scarf. It is precisely a little more than six months after her tragic death that her brand Frances Valentine, which launched ten years after having sold its eponymous line in 2006, launches the first collection dedicated to memory to her memory.

Although her husband Andy Spade and her best friend Elyce Arons - who helped the couple create their empire - she felt discouraged and had little desire to continue with the brand after the death of a 24-year-old companion, in the end and thanks to the incredible Supported by fans of the designer, he decided to continue his legacy.

"We never considered stopping," Arons said in an exclusive interview with People magazine. "Of course we had to keep going. That is what she would have wanted."

For this reason, the new collection, full of textures, bold colors and original designs, is the best way to honor the memory of the favorite designer of many women around the world.

“His aesthetics is in everything we do. I think of Katy before you make any decisions, "said Arons. "Now it's probably more difficult to make decisions because I always think, 'what would she think?' I have to hear her voice. I think we have been very close to that and to staying true to the brand and the way it was created.”

In fact, for the new campaign of the brand they chose the beautiful actress from the series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Rachel Brosnahan who is nothing more and nothing less than niece of the late designer.

Best of all, some of the pieces in this new line were chosen by Spade herself before her death last June.

In addition, Frances Valentine is also launching a special collection called "Love, Katy" that includes pieces inspired by Spade's wardrobe.
