PRESS RELEASE (Cork, Ireland – July 2007)

Green Lamb and Green Lamb Sport Autumn-Winter 07 Collections combine the elegance of the catwalk with the style of the ski slopes

Green Lamb, Europe’s leading golf womenswear brand and official supplier to the Women’s British Open and Ladies Golf Union of Great Britain and Ireland, has launched two Autumn-Winter 07 Collections that capture the essence of style and sport for ladies winter golf apparel.

The Green Lamb Autumn-Winter 07 Collection is inspired by the catwalk and defined by its timeless femininity, luxurious textures, warm winter tones and elegant, easy to coordinate styles.

Complementary colour stories, such as feminine sorbet, soft camel, fresh aqua and rich sienna, create the perfect seasonal feel. From its pink lambswool Fairisle sweater to the lambswool twisted cable cardigan, both made from sublimely soft Italian wool, this Collection is soft to touch, effortlessly stylish and allows versatile layering of cold weather favourites, such as roll necks and turtle necks, with sweaters, cardigans and wind breakers.

Featuring classic golf designs, such as argyle, cable, intarsia and baby cabling knit, and woven with deluxe yarns – including soft touch cashmere and finest grade Peruvian cotton – this Collection not only looks good, it feels great.

While the Collection is naturally elegant it also carries practical performance oriented benefits. The reversible fleece gilet features a wind resistant and water repellent stretch fabric on one side and a cosy rich velvet fleece on the other. The garment is ideal for versatile layering in winter and is easily merchandised across the entire collection.

The Green Lamb Sport Collection is active golf wear inspired by the latest trends in alpine fashion. Green Lamb has created an athletic, contemporary image for active golfers, with clean sporty lines, feminine contours and bold colour ways, such as vivid green off-set with dramatic black silhouettes. In contrast, the Collection is also available in a lighter, softer colour tone of pink, red and snow.

The Collection features natural cottons and innovative performance fabrics modelled on leading products in the outdoor activewear industry.  Technical performance fabrics define the stretch panelled gilet and thermo trousers, two stand out products in the collection.

The mesh lined gilet features stretchable fabrics set against strong colour blocking with a highly visible contrast zip. The thermo trousers are water resistant and lightly padded, with a colour side piping detail, ideal for staying warm, dry and moving freely in winter conditions.

Paul Byrd, general manager of Green Lamb, said: “This is our most exciting winter apparel offering yet. Green Lamb has achieved the benchmark of bringing superior quality, luxury textures, coordinated colours and styling to apparel that is also performance focused to meet the demands of winter golf. “We worked tirelessly to develop our collection for the active golfer who keeps pace with the fast evolving world of performance fabrics. We are proud to say that with Green Lamb Sport, we are now leading this scene in the women’s golf apparel market,” added Byrd.
