Citroën and globally renowned Irish designer, Orla Kiely, have revealed details of an exciting collaboration for an exclusive line of DS3 models - the DS3 by Orla Kiely Collection.
Kiely said: "Collaborating with Citroën and DS3 was such an exciting project as it's so different from all my previous work. I love the designs we've created and the way they're incorporated into the car!"
Mark Lloyd, Chief Designer of DS3, added: "Citroën has a continuing affinity with the worlds of fashion and design, exemplified by the chic DS and iconic 2CV - archetypal models reflecting the glamour and enduring style of their period.
"Orla Kiely's innovative use of colour and pattern has earned her global praise and recognition.
"She is the perfect partner for DS3 - which is already TopGear magazine's Car of the Year and a model fast becoming an icon of its own time."
The DS3 by Orla Kiely Collection is based on the DStyle HDi 90 manual, a generously specified model including Bluetooth® and USB connectivity, which is powered by a fuel and CO2 efficient powerplant.
The DS3 by Orla Kiely Collection will be available to order from 1 February 2011 when prices will be announced.
