The GDC x HYSTERIC GLAMOUR collection is the second collaborative release between Japanese streetwear label GDC and HYSTERIC GLAMOUR, scheduled to drop on December 13 and offered through both brands’ online stores. The range combines distinct street-style aesthetics into apparel pieces that include a Stadium Jumper, multiple hoodies, T-shirts and jeans, all anchored by dynamic graphics that blend elements of glam rock attitude with casual silhouettes.
A signature graphic motif featuring an eight-pointed star-emblazoned beret figure appears across core denim and printed tops, creating a visual thread through the lineup. Outerwear selections such as varsity-style jackets and military-inspired pieces expand the capsule’s breadth, while the denim pants and graphic tees round out the apparel offerings. The collaboration reflects each brand’s design language and is positioned as a seasonal release for late 2025.
