And Nokia isn’t kidding when it says ‘Special’. This quite spectacular handset is being launched to coincide with Paris Fashion Week and combines the sartorial influences of Nokia’s own L’Amour Collection with designer, Giambattista Valli, who has inputted his own creative ideas.
“I was intrigued by the inspiration to define the mobile phone as a fashion accessory,” explains Valli, no doubt while flicking greedily though an immense wad of Nokia cash. “Like a dress, shoes and jewelry, the Nokia 7373 Special Edition phones follow the theme of my collection and I immediately imagined them as silhouettes dressed in my work. Depending on your mood, you swap bags and transfer the contents.”
The combination of pink chasis, pearl strap and little skull motive represents “Valli’s interpretation of the contradictory elements of an intensive romance.” Nice one. I’ve always wanted my phone to do that.
There’s a black version as well, and both come loaded with a behind-the-scenes video of Giambattista Valli, presumably barking orders behind a catwalk or something. It’ll set you back 280 Euros.
The Nokia 7373 Special Edition joins the recent Prada and D&G handsets and suggests fashion branded form factors are the way ahead in 2007, rather than dull old functionality.

I am interested in purchasing the Nokia 7373. I have done a lot of research, and a lot of the reviews i have read have said that the phone gets scratched easily. I want a durable, classy looking phone. I don’t exactly play football with my mobiles but i would like a phone that can withstand scratches, and other damages easily.
Can anybody help?
