The street wear brand Play Cloths was founded 2008 by Pusha T. Perhaps you’re already familiar with his music? A preview of the 2013 Fall/Winter collection have now been released and the variation of colors, patterns, and fabrics creates a much interesting collection. They manage to mix an array of the latest trends, such as native American, outer space and metal/chain patterns. One strong favorite is the jogger pants, which in true Play Cloth style comes in a variation of prints. 16 different looks were recently presented in an Italian-style luxury townhouse in the West Village, NYC. The unique look of the space perfectly matched the collection’s style, texture and color.
For the music fans, Pusha T is also expected to drop his debut solo studio album “My Name Is My Name” early this fall.
