Streetwear Brand Palace Drops Whitney Houston Collection to Honor the Late Music Icon
British skater brand Palace is launching a charity capsule collection in tribute to the late music icon Whitney Houston, to celebrate her recent inauguration into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. All proceeds from the collection will be donated to the Whitney E. Houston Legacy Foundation.
The drop includes T-shirts, pullovers, and hats in a variety of colors, as well as a red letterman jacket with “Houston” and "Whitney" in varsity letters across the front and back. The capsule collection also offers items boasting Houston’s own image from her 1987 Whitney album cover shot 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…No doubt she would have loved to have worn it herself,” said Whitney’s former manager and sister-in-law, now President of the Foundation, Pat Houston. Palace also spoke on the collaboration, saying, “Whitney Houston is one of the all-time greats. We are so stoked and so honored to continue our charitable commitments this year with a line that celebrates such an incredible pop star and human being.”
The collection will be available online and in stores November 13 at 11 a.m. EST. See select items from the capsule below:
