Clothing retailer Aerie has revealed a collaboration with the upcoming motion picture adaptation of Broadway’s “Wicked.”
Aerie’s “Wicked” collection includes sweatshirts, joggers, seersucker shirts, T-shirts, underwear and socks featuring the movie’s logo, as well as images of Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, the film’s hot-air balloon and more. Additional items, such as tote bags and hats, feature textual nods to the Stephen Schwartz-composed songs “Defying Gravity” and “Popular.” All items are available in either an Elphaba-inspired green hue or a pink reminiscent of Glinda’s wardrobe.
This clothing release is one of several recent partnerships with the “Wicked” film. Betty Crocker announced a line of color-revealing cake mixes, while LEGO now offers four “Wicked” buildable sets. A variety of Elphaba, Glinda and Nessarose dolls from Mattel will be available in October.
“Wicked” will be released in two parts; the first will premiere in cinemas on Nov. 22. In addition to Erivo as Elphaba, the Jon M. Chu-directed film will feature Ariana Grande as Glinda, Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, Jonathan Bailey as Fiyero, Jeff Goldblum as the Wizard and Marissa Bode as Nessarose.
