Wedgwood in fashion

Waterford Wedgwood subsidiary Stuart Crystal is calling on the services of Jasper Conran to design a collection of crystal for the millennium.

The collection is due to be launched in September.

Waterford Wedgwood already works with other fashion designers such as Versace, Bulgari, John Rocha and Paul Costelloe.

The initiative to bring in fashion designers to Waterford Wedgwood lines is heralded as an attempt to reposition the brand for the new millennium.
