Streetwear Brand Palace Drops Whitney Houston Capsule In Honour Of Late Music Icon
Skater brand Palace is launching a charity collection in tribute to the late Whitney Houston, to celebrate her recent induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. All proceeds from the capsule will be donated to the Whitney E. Houston Legacy Foundation.
The drop includes t-shirts, pullovers and hats in a variety of colours, as well as a red letterman jacket with the words "Whitney" and "Houston" emblazoned in yellow across the front and back. The collection also offers items printed with images of the late music icon from her 1987 Whitney album cover shoot by Richard Avedon.
“We are very excited to have collaborated with British streetwear brand Palace Skateboards for such a special cause, a unique capsule collection celebrating Whitney’s legacy and supporting her charitable Foundation," said the singer's sister-in-law and former manager, Pat Houston, who is now President of the Foundation. "No doubt she would have loved to have worn it herself."
Palace also spoke on the collaboration, saying, “Whitney Houston is one of the all-time greats. We are so stoked and so honoured to continue our charitable commitments this year with a line that celebrates such an incredible pop star and human being.”
The capsule will be available in stores and online November 13 at 11am EST (or 12am SGT on November 14). Check out a few of the items below:
