Punkture by R. Marciano

Rebecca Marciano, daughter to one
of the masterminds behind the world-renowned Guess Inc. franchise,
leaves her famous roots behind to independently debut an exclusive
collection for men and women called, Punkture by R. Marciano. Prompted
by the distinct null and void in high-end designs with the right dose
of unpolished refinement, Rebecca masterfully converges vintage glam
with influential punk-rock elements in her standout Winter/Holiday
2005 assortment.

The fully loaded Punkture by R. Marciano line exudes an unapologetic
raw-appeal through original creations that are versatile and extremely
detail-specific. Rich tones range from pitch black to pale ivory to
project a mood-inspiring palette for the Winter/Holiday season.
Elaborate designs consist of fine-tailored blazers, dress pants,
shorts, tops and dresses. Additionally, top-notch Italian denim has
been customized for optimal fit and is complimented with sterling
silver accents and sophisticated back pocket stitched-insignia for
added distinction.

"When designing clothes, I strive to make each piece timeless with
strong emphasis on fine details that are rarely seen today," explains
Marciano. "Each piece has a one-of-a-kind feel that, most importantly,
serves to flatter a wide-range of body-types."

Directional pieces for women serve to accentuate sexy attributes such
as the back, bust-line, shoulders and legs. Innovative details such as
thin-linked silver chains are strategically placed on lavish 100% silk
and satin tops as well as dresses. In addition, haunting
screen-prints, hand-painted designs and decedent skull appliqués
ignite traditional blazers, dress shirts and t-shirts with
rock-infused intensity.

Combining form and function, the Punkture by R. Marciano collection
will shed confidence as it enters stores in early September 2005.
Retailing between $35-$400, the collection will be available at
definitive Beverly Hills boutiques including A. Mason, H. Lorenzo and
Ron Herman, to name a few. The recent preview of Punkture by R.
Marciano has already received support from celebrities including
Carmen Electra, Bow Wow and Sean Stewart. With an eye on retail
outlets such as Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale's,
Rebecca Marciano anticipates nationwide availability to mature with
the appreciation of her heartfelt designs.
