Socialite and model, Daisy Lowe is adding designer to her resume. She is collaborating with fashion retailer, Peacocks to launch a collection of retro inspired swimwear which she will also model, for summer 2011.

‘Daisy Lowe for Peacocks’ follows five collections designed by her mother Pearl Lowe.

Her swinwear range will launch in selected Peacocks’ stores and online in May 2011.

The collection is inspired by French Riviera in the fifties, and iconic sex symbols, such as Sophia Loren and Bettie Page.

Daisy Lowe said: “It was important from the start that my designs were accessible so my friends could afford them, which is why we’ve kept the collection under £18.  I’ve sought inspiration from the things I love, family holidays in Europe, iconic fifties pin ups and classic vintage shapes.”

We cant wait for the collection but I  think most of Daisy's friends could probably pay a lot more than £18 for a swimsuit.

Looks like everybody and their mother is doing high street design collaborations these days...and this includes Daisy Lowe's mother, Pearl Lowe. Daisy models the Peacocks collection before its hits stores on November 14th, just in time for the Holiday season. The collection features feminine details like bows and lace, with shoulder interest and on-trend embellishments...as well as this season's key piece, the cape. Will you be buying?
