Tyler, the Creator’s le FLEUR* and the heritage French stalwart Lacoste are back together. The duo’s new collaboration follows on from 2019’s then-groundbreaking offering, which saw Tyler use his le FLEUR* imprint and its subsequent iconography to rework Lacoste’s tennis-leaning garms, introducing streetwear-ready items fit for 2019’s French Open.
That first collaboration was an experimental sportswear moment. This new offering, on the other hand, is the perfect marriage of le FLEUR* and Lacoste – taking a look at the items, we find the perfect middle ground between classic sporting themes and le FLEUR*’s street sensibilities.
It goes without saying that the collection is bang-on trend right now. It falls perfectly into that intersection of menswear (and womenswear) that doesn’t take itself too seriously, but still manages to serve a serious look. Take the mustard twill jacquard Harrington Jacket, for example: this outerwear essential relates to both brands’ worlds, while the addition of themed letterman styling and the rear co-moniker elevate this for streetwear heads.
On the other side of the collection we find a baby blue sleeveless v-neck sweater, an incredibly cute cable knit cardigan, a pleated pant and pleated skirt in check wool, quintessentially Lacoste polo tops, T-shirts, and socks.
le FLEUR* x Lacoste will launch on October 11 at Lacoste stores, via lefleur.la and lacoste.com, as well as at a special, limited-time le FLEUR* x Lacoste pop-up shop on the Champs-Elysées in Paris.
