Best of British streetwear - Passarella Death Squad x Boxfresh

SS13 – Passarella Death Squad x Boxfresh – Volume I London, October 2012 - This December witnesses streetwear alumnae Boxfresh meet
“Guardian of the avant guarde” Passarella Death Squad in a collision that is no accident.
“Boxfresh approached me with the idea of two British labels that occupy opposing ends of the streetwear spectrum, coming together to design a capsule collection. I thought this sounded like a great collaboration” says Danny Broddle, creative director of Passarella Death Squad.


The result is a capsule collection that incorporates influences from both brands, making it accessible yet directional. Key pieces include a unique soft drum-dyed lambs leather biker jacket, a dramatic trench coat, a contemporary take on a classical denim jacket and shirting in a bold camo print. Fine merino knits, hoodies, sweats and printed T-shirts also play paramount roles in this exciting collaboration.
Special attention has been given to the visuals and music surrounding the collaboration. The video and lookbook have been shot by Timothy Saccenti and Alan Bibby, known for their previous work for the likes of Rihanna, Coldplay, Depeche Mode, Arctic Monkeys and Flying Lotus. Created by Danny Broddle himself, the soundtrack gives the video an ethereal feel.
