Introducing the latest collaboration between Aimé Leon Dore and Porsche—the elegant 1960 356B. The stunning one-off has been refined rather than redesigned, with hand-painted gold leaf accents, Alpaca seatbacks, and a Carrera 2 steering wheel. Porsche
, which was built between 1948 to 1965, was actually the 911’s direct predecessor. It may not have attained the iconic statues of its younger sibling, the marque’s defining model, but it’s still a true beauty rightfully beloved by enthusiasts to this day.The fashion label has chosen to refine rather than redesign the donor 1960 356B it used for the collaboration. The coupe’s front and rear bumpers have been discarded, streamlining its already sleek shape even further.
The fun isn’t limited to the exterior. Open either door and you’ll find a set of midnight-blue leather seats with tonal stitching and matching Alpaca seatbacks and floor mats. Other tasteful tweaks include more hand-painted gold leaf accents and the steering wheel from the Carrera 2. It’s unclear if the power train has been touched, but the car has been equipped with disc brakes.
