| Sony Ericsson today announced the Jalou by Dolce & Gabbana; a special limited edition clamshell handset. The Dolce & Gabbana branded style statement has a beautifully facet cut jewel form and is only 73mm long – shorter than your favourite lipstick, it is easy to slip into the tiniest clutch or jacket pocket and is full of essential features. Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana comes complete with exclusive packaging and accessories – three silky rose satin bags to either protect the phone, store the charger, or to even carry jewellery. But that’s not all – it also comes with a special Dolce & Gabbana branded headset with gold accents to keep you connected in style. Even the content is special on Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana. Exclusive photography and video clips from Dolce&Gabbana’s women’s Autumn/Winter 2010 runway show, with sneak peek footage from all the backstage action, will be pre-loaded on the handset. There is also a variety of stylish themes and wallpapers, as well as a Dolce & Gabbana blog that sends the latest trends, news and gossip directly to the mobile phone via an RSS feed. | ![]() |
Keep your eyes peeled for the advertising campaign at the beginning of October which will support the launch of Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana. Stefano Gabbana and Domenico Dolce will work on the creativity themselves to deliver a stunning advertising campaign.
Jalou will also be made available by Sony Ericsson, in Q4 2009, in a variety of other gemstone inspired colours including Deep Amethyst, Aquamarine Blue and Onyx Black. Never mind a signature necklace or oversized shades; Jalou is the perfect accessory and Christmas present.
Jalou’s host of features will keep you entertained and looking fabulous. The two inch screen’s clever design means that at the touch of a button the screen becomes a mirror, offering a discreet way to make sure you look as good as your mobile phone. It is also the first Sony Ericsson to feature Walk Mate step counter, to help you stay in shape wherever you go.
Other features on both Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana and Sony Ericsson’s Jalou include: the 3.2 megapixel camera, music player, video recording, 3G, Bluetooth, built-in FM radio and Internet where you can check your email, watch YouTube clips, Google, as well as upload your video and photos to your favourite social networking sites.
Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana will be available in selected markets in the fourth quarter 2009 exclusively in the colour Sparkling Rose.
