The Moncler Genius Project Sees a Range of Functional Special Items

— December 10, 2018 — Luxury
The Moncler Genius Project is a celebration of collaboration, an interdisciplinary approach to fashion. As an end to this design-forward year of innovative outfits and fabrics, the luxurious label releases a collection, simply dubbed 'Special Items,' that offers a selection of functional yet stylish sports gear. From a snowboard that has been produced through a partnership between Burton and Hiroshi Fujiwara to a Palm Angels x Fracesco Ragazzi skate deck.

Surely, this approach to functional sports products propels the Moncler Genius Project from a fashion-focused initative to a truly interdisciplinary venture. In addition to this, Special Items also sees a vinyl recorded by Alexander Desplat, as well as "a pair of the legendary long-sleeved, down-filled gloves."
