British menswear imprint Percival works in collaboration with Champion on the Fruit Stand collection, adding to its roster of impressive collaborative projects lately. The new range is inspired by local street vendors that can be found on classic British high streets. It is defined by motifs such as fruit stickers and stamps that detail the brightly tonal garments.
The silhouette channels the relaxed themes of Champion which are detailed with the playful energy of Percival. The capsule joins the Fall/Winter 2023 roster with Champion's heavyweight hoodies, tees, and track pants. The palette is comprised of black, yellow, gray, magenta, cream, and teal. The silhouettes have a loose fit for a comfortable element and are also detailed with accents such as sprouting flowers.
