Gucci, Palace, Gucci, Palace, Gucci, Palace…
Hype x 1000000, the Italian fashion house and cult London maestros converge on a collection that is a 100 percent guaranteed sell-out. Mixing Palace’s skate silhouettes and louche designs with Gucci’s maximalist 70s aesthetic, buzzwords ignite into a collection of graphic tees, football shirts, moto leathers, plaid shirts, hoodies, checkerboard chap jeans and oversized fuzzy hats. Needless to say, the collab also sees the brand’s logos merge, with Gucci’s Double-G and Palace’s Tri-Ferg forging a united new motif.

The collection will launch exclusively via Gucci Vault on 21st October before selling at pop-ups and Palace stores worldwide.
