The Rolls Royce RR4

Yesterday the Telegraph had a story on the new Rolls Royce RR4. The listed some minor details on the car and posted the image above. At first glance it is quite a departure from what is traditionally expected from Rolls Royce. But if you actually look closer you can see details that are inherently Rolls. Ian Cameron, the chief designer, said:
"The RR4 has a more informal presence than the Phantom, with a greater emphasis on driving. This is expressed through its slightly smaller dimensions and more organic form, yet with powerful, purposeful proportions. It is a true and uncompromising Rolls-Royce in every sense."
Looking over our 08/09 collection that will be out this fall, there are some pieces that might not be immediately recognizable as "KJUS". But as Mr. Cameron suggested about the RR4- they are true and uncompromising KJUS in every sense.

And like the RR4 sketch above sometimes it's hard to tell in reality what it'll actually look like-

According to Edmunds.com the RR4 will be priced between $250,000 and $280,000 and will be available in 2010. The men's Prime, a 4-way stretch down jacket with 4-way stretch lining and ultrasonic welded baffles will retail for $1,790 and be available in October of this year.
