Patta and Tommy Hilfiger join forces once again on a new collection that is officially launching on December 9th with an early Patta exclusive launch on December 2nd. The first collection between the two was inspired by the Pan-African flag, which is a strong symbol of Black liberation on a global scale. There were archival looks that brought forth vintage aesthetics and celebrations of Black culture.
This latest range joins the Fall/Winter 2022 offerings and it celebrates the hip-hop scene of New York. The overall looks stem from streetwear heritage above all else. Edson Sabajo, Co-founder of Patta tells Highsnobiety that "The collection is basically an ode to New York City and the nineties, one of the golden eras of hip-hop, the city has been instrumental for both brands, as has the genre and its culture."
