Nokia 7270 will bear Versace’s signature

There are more and more terminal producers that launch limited series of products aimed more at fashion enthusiasts rather than technology lovers.

good example is the 7270 model, a phone whose design has revolutionized the world of cellular telephony. This model was Nokia’s proposal to fashion oriented collections, but the company added something more and associated it with the name of an important designer.

Nokia employed the services of Donatella Versace who designed a clamshell phone with yellow and black ornaments in the well-known art-deco style of the '20. The phone is completed by a wrist belt with Swarovski crystals.

Nokia will manufacture only 727 units whose price will be…799 Euros. Still, the entire project is intended to be a charity event, all the profits being donated to the Life Ball 2005 organization, one of the biggest European charity and anti-AIDS foundations. Besides having an enormous price, this phone will only be available in Europe.
