HERE’S THE STORY FROM A-Z…

After their iconic 1996 debut single “Wannabe” topped the charts in 37 countries, Spice Girls’ debut album ‘Spice’, went on to sell more than 31 million copies worldwide, becoming the best-selling album of all time by a female group. The girls have gone on to sell more than 90 million records around the globe, releasing three studio albums and 11 singles and winning a host of awards including a BRIT Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music.

The first Spice Girls ‘Wannabe 25’ Merch capsule collection is available now HERE. The items worn by or shown by each of the Spice
Girls below are available at the link above. (P.S. The collection will sell out FAST!!)

The Spice Girls and Universal Music Group are releasing an expanded anniversary ‘SPICE 25’ album, featuring previously unreleased songs, demos, and mixes on October 29, 2021, almost exactly 25 years after the release of their debut album on November 4, 1996, on Virgin Records.

The expansive multi-year deal will see Bravado representing the band across merchandising, direct-to-consumer products and campaigns, touring, brand and retail licensing and distribution, ahead of the 25th Anniversary of their revolutionary debut album ‘Spice’ in October.
Having exploded into the global consciousness together in 1996, the Spice Girls created an internationally recognized movement and brand, characterized by a unique blend of style and strength that is as popular, reverential, and empowering today as ever before, having inspired and influenced multiple generations of fans, musicians and peers alike to be emboldened with girl power and people power!

Stevie’s Note:
I have been waiting for a return of the Spice Girls. It’s a smart thing to do because who didn’t love the Spice Girls?  They have a new album about to emerge and now this  branded collection of all kinds of items from coffee cups to sweatshirts.
FINALLY the return of these women..  and their music!
