Limited-edition design themes and ultra-premium materials are among the hallmarks of the Black Label collection. Alcantara will be used on headliners, pillars and package trays, as well as for seat, trunk and floor-mat detailing.

The Black Label collection's Center Stage design theme previewed at this year's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance offered uniquely perforated Alcantara that added a plush texture to doors and seats. Inspired by the worlds of fashion and theatre, the Center Stage Jet Black interior featured a Foxfire Red headliner to mirror the interior of a theatre richly accented in red.

In addition to Center Stage, Lincoln also plans to offer two other Black Label design themes -- Modern Heritage and Indulgence. The Black Label collection's official public introduction is scheduled to take place at the 2014 New York International Auto Show next spring.
