STYLE:Designer Hussein Chalayan PUMA Collection

Hussein Chalayan, who joined Puma as Creative Director in February 2008, marking the first long-term partnership between fashion designer and major sports label, has released a preview of his first work for the brand — for Spring 2010, hitting stores next February — under the "fashion sportswear" label Urban Motility.

This collection is mostly black on black spiked with bright colors, and contrasts matte against glossy. Jackets has internal compartments in different sizes to eliminate the need for a handbag, pants with a removable pocket "ease the stress of emptying pockets in a hurry during security control at the airport." Another long outerwear piece in parachute silk can be worn as a dress or a jacket; pants zip at the lower legs, allowing for a switch from skinny to fuller legs, and footwear features elevated wedge heels. Prices range $50 for a t-shirt to $353 for outerwear.

This is definitely a line that I would buy for when I am at the airport traveling and still wanting to look stylish.
