Porsche x Aimé Leon Dore

Porsche and the New York fashion label Aimé Leon Dore have joined forces again to redesign and restore this 911 Super Carrera. ALD founder and Creative Director Teddy Santis is fulfilling a dream with the olive-coloured 911 SC: a very personal 911 based on his family’s roots and values. “The design of the vehicle and the creative direction for the project both come from my childhood on the Greek islands and the unique beauty of things that get better with age and wear in that environment," says Santis.

The 911 SC demonstrates his pure passion for the brand and attention to detail. For the exterior, he chose the classic Porsche colour Olive. Auxiliary lights on the bonnet, Fuchs wheels and a roof rack also make the historic 911 the perfect everyday companion. These features mean that the 911 SC is equipped for driving on roads that might be rather less than perfect.

Inside the car, Santis combined materials and colours in a unique way. Persian carpets are used as floor mats, for example. The fashion designer also integrated these into the doors. The original Recaro seats were painstakingly restored by the supplier itself. All the materials – from the leather to bouclé – were processed by hand.
