The Concept Collective Launches “Summer in the Hamptons” at Prince of Scots

June 3, 2014 - PRLog -- With summer upon us, The Concept Collective founder Stephanie Halphen is bringing a fresh collection of under-the-radar American-designed fashion brands to the Hamptons, in collaboration with local treasure Prince of Scots and New York City’s Lionesque Group. It’s an eclectic, yet carefully merchandised arrival for the Hampton’s.

The collective includes Italian leather handbags by San Francisco based 49 Square Miles that capture rugged beauty and independent spirit; architecturally inspired eyewear by Haze Collective in ultra premium vibrant hues; Brooklyn based jewelry by AEA, which distills a mix of abstract forms and futuristic influences into clean, modern monuments; dresses by Yumi Kim in vintage silhouettes spun with a contemporary urban feminine mystique; and hand-woven Moroccan loafers by Cobra Society that evoke a heritage of ancient times, yet street style for today’s fearless fashion influencer.

Prince of Scots, on the pulse of the evolution of style, is stand out in the world of luxury destinations in the Hamptons. In a world of mass market fashion, where every brand seems to look the same, they take a step back to reflect on the beauty that inspires ones senses.  “We search the globe for a fresh influence, unique colors, new silhouettes, and a bespoke flavor” says co-founder Tim Danser, and these goals makes the summer alignment with The Concept Collective highly synergistic.

Watermill is a burgeoning location within the Hamptons with the opening of the largest Soul Cycle, Financier Bakery and West Elm, among others. It’s a newer destination, and the caliber of retailers are making its mark this summer.

Prince of Scots is an Official Sponsor of the Traditional Home Magazine Hampton Designer Show House which opens July 19th. The Modern Luxury Lifestyle of Prince of Scots and The Concept Collective will offer trending setting design and fashion to America’s number one luxury market.

Doors officially open June 6^th and will remain open through Labor Day.
