Gucci X Dapper Dan Collection Has Dropped

In the 1980s Harlem's Dapper Dan's clothing was one of the most in-demand among everyone ranging from rappers, singers, gangsters and just your average guy or girl who wanted to feel a taste of glamour. Reworking Gucci prints and crafting attire with a street edge, by 1992 Dapper Dan was forced to closed down his shop due to a lawsuit brought upon him for copyright infringement. However, when the news was announced last year that Dapper Dan and Gucci would actually do a collaborative line, there were sentiments of joy and also confusion. Questions of why the brand wanted to now officially work with the designer after 25 years were surely appropriate.
