(19/06/12) -- Celebrating the car designs of a classic period in time,
the Colours of 1968 collection from Driver's Selection by Porsche
Design pays homage to the colour spectrum of 911 in the late '60s:
Tangerine, Polo Red, Irish Green and Ossi Blue. These charismatic
colours conjure up the spirit of the era and add a touch of retro fun
to the collection, which includes items for all the family.

T-shirts for men, women and children are priced at £39 and £25
respectively. The stylish messenger bag (£85) and shopping bag (£89)
are both made of durable and weatherproof truck tarpaulin,
incorporating the motif of contrasted blocks of colour and cars in the
1968 colours. Household items also featuring the same motifs include
the set of Glass Coasters (£40), the Collector's Cup No.12 (£15) and
the Breakfast boards (£15), which can be used both as placemats or
chopping boards. In two-tone Colours of 1968 print, an umbrella is
also available at £40.

In 1971, Porsche raced to victory in the Le Mans 24 Hours. The 917
race car was liveried in the iconic blue and red of sponsors Martini
and set the scene for an enduring relationship between Porsche and
Martini Racing. Now, in 2012, Driver's Selection by Porsche Design has
refreshed its popular Martini collection to include new items
celebrating this historic collaboration.

Featuring distinctive light blue, dark blue and red stripes, the range
includes clothing items, accessories and sports equipment. The
collection's design reflects the style and performance of the race
cars of the period and will resonate with Porsche enthusiasts and
motorsport fans.

New to this year's collection are the Martini Racing Sportsline
Jackets in white for ladies (£175), dark blue for men (£175) and a
limited edition red, also for men (£190). Suitable for wear all year
round, these jackets are windproof and super lightweight. The range
also includes Martini Racing longsleeve tops for men and women (£60);
these are white with details picked out in the Martini colours. For
sunny days there are polo shirts in deep blue, priced at (£55) and to
complete the look, this year's collection also includes the Martini
racing baseball cap (£20).

Aviator Sunglasses (£150) trimmed in blue are also new to this year's
collection. These are universally stylish with a small and simple
Martini logo detail on the side of the frames, and suitable for men
and women. The frames encase grey lenses that are 100% UV protective.

Performance and sporting ability are also encapsulated in a range of
sports equipment. For summertime fun in the garden or at the beach,
Driver's Selection by Porsche Design has created the Speedminton set
(£125), a high performance badminton kit. The set includes two
carbon-composite racquets created for enhanced precision and impact
and five high-speed shuttlecocks. Speedminton, also known as Speed
Badminton, combines badminton, squash and tennis but is played without
a net, creating a fast paced game that can be played in gardens, parks
and beaches alike! Using shorter, more tightly strung racquets and
heavier shuttlecocks, this exciting new game is ideal for summer.
