Captured in a beautiful campaign by Tyler Mitchell ✨
for a new Autumn/Winter 2021 capsule collection. The collaboration – which is the third of its kind – is set to be released on November 16, with an accompanying Tyler Mitchell-shot campaign being unveiled today.The collaboration follows Wales Bonner’s main Autumn/Winter 2021 collection, titled “Black Sunlight”. In it, the designer pays tribute to Black intellectualism and the radical diasporic scholars of the 1980s, by reimagining classic colours, cut lines and silhouettes from the era.
For her adidas collaboration, she leans further into this theme: elevating iconic pieces from the brand’s archives with scholarly graphics and iconography . The 80s-inspired collection will include T-shirts, anoraks, trainers, and jumpers, as well as a refreshed take on adidas’ signature tracksuit tops and bottoms.The accompanying campaign, captured by Tyler Mitchell, evokes a similar sense of nostalgia.
