Lingua Franca has launched a holiday collection inspired by Elf, featuring hand-embroidered cashmere, knitwear and accessories based on quotes and moments from the Christmas film.
NEW YORK, Nov. 11, 2026, (FASHION BEAUTY SCENE) — New York fashion brand Lingua Franca has partnered with Warner Bros. Global Consumer Products on a holiday collection inspired by the New Line Cinema film Elf.
The collection features Lingua Franca’s signature hand-embroidered cashmere sweaters along with knitwear and accessories incorporating phrases from the film, including “Santa! OMG I know him!,” “Son of a nutcracker” and “Raised by elves.”
“There are certain films you can watch a hundred times and still laugh at the same lines. Elf is one of those films for me. We've always believed in the power of words to connect people, and Buddy's words are some of the most joyful I can think of. Getting to stitch them onto sweaters felt like a very Lingua Franca way to celebrate the holidays,” said Rachelle Hruska MacPherson, Founder of Lingua Franca.
The pieces are hand-embroidered in New York City, where much of the film’s story takes place.
The Elf x Lingua Franca collection includes cashmere sweaters and other holiday apparel and accessories designed around the film’s characters, dialogue and imagery.
The collection is available through Lingua Franca’s website and select retail locations.
Founded in New York City in 2016 by MacPherson, Lingua Franca began with hand-embroidered cashmere sweaters and has since expanded into a broader ready-to-wear collection.
