We have observed the symbiosis of fashion giants in past years, but 2022 shows us plenty of outstanding fashion collaborations. The end of the year is near, and L’Officiel Cyprus have collected the loudest and most interesting cases for you: Prada, Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Balenciaga!
In June of this year, sports style lovers had the opportunity to purchase the new Adidas x Gucci collection. The collection contained women’s and men’s clothes, shoes, accessories and jewellery. The keynote of this collection was the main attributes of both brands, the three-stripe design of Adidas and the classic red and green colour palette of Gucci.

In our fall issue, we discussed the legendary sneakers, where L’Officiel Cyprus also spotted another sports giant, Nike and luxury Louis Vuitton collaboration.
The Louis Vuitton and Nike “Air Force 1” by Virgil Abloh will be presented by Sotheby’s in an exclusive Louis Vuitton pilot case in orange Taurillon Monogram leather, exclusively for their auction. The auction proceeds will benefit The Virgil Abloh™ “Post-Modern” Scholarship Fund.
This organization aims to foster equity and inclusion within the fashion industry by providing scholarships to academically promising students of African American or African descent.

Two more shoe giants have made a very unexpected pairing. Feminine and glamorous Manolo Blahnik crossed with the famous and comfortable Birkenstock.
“Birkenstocks have been in my wardrobe since the very beginning of time – I have loved and worn mine for many years. I am thrilled that we have been able to collaborate, fusing the Manolo Blahnik aesthetic with the everyday comfort of Birkenstocks. It is wonderful!” – Manolo Blahnik.

The two brands teamed up again at the very beginning of 2022 for the Adidas for Prada Re-Nylon collection. This is the third brand collaboration since 2019.
The Adidas for Prada Re-Nylon collection featured modernized versions of the Adidas Originals Forum sneakers in high and low performances, track jackets, tracksuits, sweaters, sweatshirts and bucket hats.

And again, Nike, this time with the trendy brand Jacquemus. Again, tenderness, sport and functionality converged in this collaboration.
The 15-piece collection was made available in June and enclosed a minimal take on women’s sportswear.
The Nike x Jacquemus capsule contained the Nike Humara sneakers in two colour options, bike shorts, sports bras, cropped polo shirts and other sportswear.
