Penelope and Monica Cruz have unveiled their latest collection for Mango. Laura Davis takes a look

THERE’S clearly no sibling rivalry in the Cruz family, or at least not where fashion’s concerned.

Spanish actress Penelope and her little sister Monica, left, have designed their third collection for high street store Mango, and this time Liverpool shoppers will be able to get their hands on it with a minimum of fuss.

Romance, their AW08 range, includes vintage-inspired garments with glamorous silhouettes for evening wear and cocktail parties.

For the men, Mango’s He collection features two ranges – Urbano for skinny jeans, knit jackets, jeans, flat shoes and large leather bags, and Greenforest for outerwear.
