Fashion store, Her Universe, recently teamed up with Square Enix to produce a new clothing line for women, described as the online store's first gaming-inspired collection. The new collection is now available through Her Universe and Hot Topic.
The new range includes five new outfits designed by model and Tomb Raider Cosplay Ambassador, Hannah Kent.
In her announcement post via her Facebook cosplay page, Hannah talks a little about her passion project that she describes as being "near and dear" to her heart, in addition to her history with the series. "I remember my dad bringing home the very first Tomb Raider game back in the 90s. He put it on his PC and he, my brother and I would sit for hours every night playing together. It was one of my biggest motivators to finish my homework!"
"Over the years I’ve returned to the franchise several times, even replaying all the old games because of how wonderful they are. I’ve also absolutely loved the new vision that Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics have brought to Lara’s story in the new games. I definitely can’t wait for the release of Shadow of the Tomb Raider next week either!" She adds, "getting the chance to do this collection and share my love of this incredible franchise with so many other amazing fans has been such a dream come true and an incredible blessing. I love what I’ve been able to create with Her Universe and hope that others will love it too. Thank you to Ashley at Her Universe for this opportunity and Meagan Marie at Crystal Dynamics for always supporting and believing in me! I’m truly grateful and can not thank you all enough."
In addition to her work with Her Universe, Hannah was also the Official Tomb Raider Cosplay Ambassador at the Shadow of the Tomb Raider reveal event in Montreal, and created the cosplay patterns for the Shadow of the Tomb Raider tank top.
