Delta Air Lines is expanding its partnership with the Missoni Italian fashion brand, to create a luxurious new range of amenities for its Delta One customers. The collection includes a Missoni bedding set designed for Delta, along with a refreshed amenity kit. The new Delta One bedding set will launch on international Delta One flights this summer and will be rolled out across all Delta One flights by the end of the year.
“In crafting the next generation of our amenity kit we embraced our signature artistry, blending patterns, textures and hues to create a kit that’s distinct, enduring, and designed to suit your lifestyle beyond your time on the plane,” said Alberto Caliri, creative director at Missoni.
A few more details
Missoni designs often make use of bold patterns and vivid colours. The Delta amenities are a little subtler than some might expect of Missoni, but that seems appropriate for a relaxing sleep experience. The new Delta One bedding set includes a Missoni duvet and white sleeping pillow, which feature a subtle and elegant Missoni trademark zigzag design with navy accents.
Delta is also expanding its popular mattress pad that doubles as a lumbar pillow to all Delta One flights, and is introducing an additional memory foam ‘cuddle pillow’ for long-haul flights over 12 hours. Later this year, the airline will also introduce upgraded Missoni branded navy slippers.
The refreshed Delta One amenity kits are designed to reflect the colours of the sky and will feature Missoni’s signature textured zigzag pattern on the exterior of the bag. The Missoni and Delta teams created a new and exclusive pattern and colour palette that celebrates the view from the window at 35,000 feet while paying homage to Delta’s 100-year flying heritage.
The new kits will debut in autumn (fall) and come in blue and cream options, with gold hardware. The kits will contain blue or cream Missoni crew-length socks and a soft, lightweight and breathable eye mask featuring the brand’s signature zigzag pattern, with colours coordinated with each bag colour. Customers will also find a pen with metal accents and Delta One branding, Grown Alchemist skincare products in aluminium tubes, a bamboo toothbrush, Marvis toothpaste, and earplugs.
“In travel, every moment matters – not just where you’re going, but how you get there,” said Mauricio Parise, Delta’s VP of brand experience. “We want you to savour your time in the air, which is why we are intentional about each detail of the customer experience to create a sense of home in every space, which is instantly elevated with Missoni’s iconic, signature designs.”
