A.P.C. and Lacoste Deliver a Range of Daily Lifestyle Apparel
A.P.C. and Lacoste are the latest duos to join forces, delivering a range of apparel designs that stem from a daily lifestyle inspiration. Talking about the capsule, A.P.C. founder and current creative director Jean Touitou tells HYPEBEAST that “It’s like musicians jamming, it’s like chefs cooking together, [...]It’s probably magic, Louise could understand our ideas without any struggle.”
The capsule itself blends both of the brands' design languages together in a seamless manner, featuring militaristic themes and sportswear sensibilities throughout. It also boasts a retro theme with a slight 90s influence seen throughout the silhouettes including the signature denim used to create the windbreaker. This same windbreaker also arrives in navy blue tonal nylon and a khaki gabardine.
