The very dashingly debonair ‘Dapper’ Dan X Gucci collection has become the talk of the town. The collection unveils select merchandise made with Gucci materials. It comprises of ready-to-wear styled outfits and accessories, garnished with inspiration from the archives of Dapper.
The Gucci-Dapper Dan lineup presents the statement design pieces by the designer in green and red stripes, which stand out and include the T-shirts, tanks, and bomber jackets. The tracksuits exhibit the popular GG-printed in nylon and velour. These pieces unveil the signature Gucci material and embellished elements along with the embroidered dragons and bold letterings.
A brand new yellow logo from the brand also makes its debut. It is a tribute to the inventive sign of Dan’s Harlem store. Woven gold chains and decorations with lion heads and the faces of bearded Greek gods are a few mentioned crafted pieces from the vast design collection. The vintage silhouettes of the collection with the ornamentation of Gucci leitmotif, this collection honours the craft that made Dapper Dan a living legend.
Photographed by Ari Marcopoulos, the look-book released consists of assorted images that pay homage to the heritage of the designer. In an attempt at pulling off a similar aesthetic vibe, the picture gallery is shot with professional models around the streets of Harlem and New York, reminiscing the old street style shots.
The collection is now available to shop on the online platform and at exclusive global stores of Gucci.
