The Cannes Film Festival is back for 2024, returning once again with all the glitz and glamour associated with the annual celebration of cinema. As the global sartorial community has come to expect, the 77th Cannes Film Festival’s red carpet premieres and screenings were a spectacle to behold as the event continued its long history of producing memorable fashion moments.
Among the renowned festival attendees were Lisa and Jessica Kistermann, the young entrepreneurs behind buzzy sneaker brand Crime London. The creative sibling duo turned up to Cannes in their signature show-stopping style, gracing the red carpet in several different edgy looks designed by Alaia, David Koma and Thierry Mugler expertly selected for the occasion.
The sisters’ festival appearance also confirmed one sneaker industry secret that’s been quietly circling for some time now: the Kistermanns will intensify their collaborative project between Crime London and movie industry heavyweight Warner Bros, unfolding a new limited-edition capsule collection drawing inspiration from the highly anticipated 85th Batman anniversary – the perfect announcement to cap the film-centric weekend.

After enjoying widespread success with the Crime London x Looney Tunes first launch with Warner Bros. in 2022, Lisa and Jessica are now tapping their prescient street style vision straight into the urban jungle of Gotham City. Embracing the grittiness of the fictional Warner Bros. metropolis and the heroics of Batman, the full capsule collection expertly merges film and comic culture with sportswear. Crime London’s meticulous designs bring the Dark Knight’s emblem to life across various footwear styles while capturing the essence of the film series through moody colors, dramatic design elements, and graphics.
The Crime London x Batman footwear pieces, which are set to launch later this year, include a twist on the classic Sk8 Deluxe silhouette with black, grey and yellow accents that pay homage to Batman, a sleek white low cut with a pop of purple and green inspired by notorious Gotham villain the Joker, and a feminine glitter and black patent leather style designed in ode to femme fatale Batgirl.
Eager to get your hands on the heroic new collaboration? Fans of The Batman” and Crime London can expect to suit up in the exciting Crime London x Batman collection upon its release later this summer, available at crimelondon.com and select retailers worldwide.
