A meeting point of sensibilities, a synthesis in the street.
Following months of speculation, the Palace Gucci collaborative collection finally dropped. While both brands are no strangers, Gucci’s creative director, Alessandro Michele has expressed his love for partnerships. “From time to time I feel the need to play with someone else,” he says.
A defining underground force of men’s fashion in the 2010s, Palace here echoes Gucci’s heritage and legacy through a range of pieces that hybridize the creative universes of the two – inherently Italian, boldly British, translated anew. Inspired by Palace’s own back catalog and Gucci’s undeniable, cross-generational influence on youth culture, the collection focuses on the street – a place of fascination for Alessandro Michele, where fashion comes alive. The road, the rodeo, skate, and sport, all fuse together in pieces that reflect the multifaceted identity of modern street culture, from soccer to house music, to moto-riding. Palace Gucci epitomizes fashion without hierarchy, liberated and democratic.
The collection encompasses accessories and clothing for all genders – including Palace’s debut women’s ready-to-wear designs. Merging the aesthetic languages of each, the collection double-speaks Palace and Gucci. The collaborated pieces will be retailed online from October 21st exclusively through Gucci Vault, the concept store launched by Gucci in September 2021.
