Malibu Limited Edition | Cool things

Frost Magazine love the design for this limited edition Malibu.

Inspired by the vibrancy and feeling of summertime, this season will see the launch of the Limited Edition Summer ’12 bottle by the original coconut rum, Malibu.

Following the success of their first limited edition bottle in 2011, Malibu have continued to show their support to up and coming British designers by collaborating with acclaimed illustrator Sophie Harris-Greenslade. Hot off the catwalk, the bold, bright and beautiful techno-colour inspired print is this summer’s ultimate fashion statement, and this limited edition bottle is no exception. This impactful design is a one of a kind collectible which will be available in all major supermarkets from 1st July 2012.

After graduating from Kingston University with a degree in illustration and animation, Sophie Harris-Greenslade has worked on a variety of style shoots including French Elle, Now, W magazine, Disorder and Stylist and worked with numerous celebrity clientele including M.I.A., Cate Blanchett, Nicole Scherzinger and Keisha Buchanan. Sophie has also achieved great acclaim via exhibitions, which have earned her recognition in top publications such as i-D, Stylist, the Guardian and the Observer, as well as her regularly updated blog.

Sophie Harris-Greenslade says, “I wanted to create a vibrant and impactful design which captures the feeling of summer and stands out on the shelf! I usually work on a much smaller scale, so I wanted the patterns on the bottle to reflect the intricacy of my illustrations. The fluidity of the shapes also reflects Malibu’s easy going and fun filled attitude”.

The Limited Edition Summer ’12 bottle is part of Malibu’s 2012 campaign which kicks off this summer with the second Malibutique, following the success of its debut in 2011.
