Give Respect to Get Respect

The partnership of Missy Elliott and adidas continues, with the launch of the Respect M.E. Spring/Summer 2006 collection. The complete line of adidas Originals footwear, apparel and accessories captures Missy Elliott's always unique style and delivers a holistic and meaningful fashion collection to young women.

With Respect M.E. adidas and Missy Elliott provide a positive message to the urban sportswear market since April 2004. Empowerment is the soul of the Respect M.E. collection, which is a platform for positivity, style, skills, friendship and above all, respect. Missy's unique bond with her audience grew from lyrics that inspire with their intelligence and in-your-face-honesty and with Respect M.E. adidas shares her values of authenticity, originality and innovation.

In Spring/Summer 2006 Urban Safari meets Miami Beach as a central theme. The new range lays down a "Bassline" mixing classic silhouettes and colours with high quality materials, finishing at an affordable price. This line is designed to flow with every part of a Miami girl's day.

"Rhythm" combines classic tailored styles with details giving an urban twist in earth tone colours and natural, high-end fabrications. This line heads to the concrete jungle to bring safari inspired sport classics to the street savvy shopper.

"Rhythm Exclusive" mixes Hip Hop style with a Glam-meets-Punk-Rock flavour that is all Rock n Roll. The styling is sexy and sophisticated addressing a modern girl, who is not afraid to stand out from the crowd.

It is a unique line from a unique mind: sexy, forward-leaning, stylish, fresh and empowered. Respect M.E. and respect yourself.
