Fashion Meets Marksmanship: Custom Blazers for International Competition

Fashion Meets Marksmanship: Custom Blazers for International Competition

August 22, 2025

A unique collaboration between fashion designers and competitive shooting has resulted in both sartorial success and sporting victory for the United States Goodwill Randle Team.

Heike & Liz joined forces with Enchanté by Marina to create custom team blazers for the prestigious marksmanship squad, composed of current and former shooting luminaries selected to compete against Great Britain at the renowned Bisley National Shooting Centre in rural South Central England.

The collaboration came about naturally when Celeste Green of the Heike & Liz design team was chosen to participate in the competition. Her dual role as both competitor and designer created the perfect opportunity to outfit the American team in distinctive, professionally crafted blazers that would represent the United States with style and distinction.

The partnership between the fashion houses brought together complementary expertise, with Heike & Liz's innovative design approach merging seamlessly with Enchanté by Marina's craftsmanship to create garments befitting the international stage.

The United States team's efforts proved successful on multiple fronts. Not only did they achieve a winning outcome in competition, but the event served as a valuable opportunity for cultural exchange. Team members were able to renew longstanding relationships with British counterparts while forging new connections across the Atlantic.

The Bisley National Shooting Centre, steeped in marksmanship tradition, provided the perfect backdrop for this blend of sporting excellence and fashion collaboration. The custom blazers served not only as team uniforms but as symbols of the professionalism and pride the American delegation brought to this goodwill competition.

This unique intersection of fashion design and competitive shooting demonstrates how creative partnerships can enhance sporting events, creating memorable experiences that extend far beyond the competition itself.
