New York-based streetwear retailer KITH introduces its 'Love Thy City' collection in collaboration with Russell Athletic and Vogue. The capsule made its original debut on the runway when the brand showcased its Fall/Winter 2019 selection and it is now available in the market.
The three efforts come together through a series of collegiate themed apparel designs that are plastered with logo accents. The silhouettes include tees, crewneck sweaters, hoodies, sweatpants, and varsity jackets as well. The color palette is fairly vibrant, honoring the KITH flagship locations, spotlighting red, blue, green, white, yellow, and more. The Love Thy City capsule is made up of 24 pieces in total and the variety of goods celebrate the different flagship locations. The different themed colored celebrate Los Angeles, Miami, SoHo, and Brooklyn.
