MySims gets dual-purpose designer accessories

8 October 2007 8:54 GMT / By Amy-Mae Elliott

To celebrate the launch of MySims, EA Games have commissioned four of the UK's hottest fashion designers to create a dual-purpose capsule collection.

The range of fun, quirky and colourful products have been inspired by the manga style graphics and candy coloured world of MySims, reflecting the core ethos of the game: "Self Expression, Customisation, Creativity and Collectability".

Dual purpose - each item works to enhance the MySims Wii or Nintendo DS experience but also brings the MySims world into your world "by offering a lifestyle use" as well.

Strictly limited edition and available to buy from 8th October, all profits from the collection will go to Great Ormond Street children's hospital.
