Inspired by the LA skater scene, Francessco Ragazzi created Palm Angels after releasing a photography book of the same title in 2014. With each highly anticipated collection, sun soaked streetwear is curated with an athleisure aesthetic.
Interpreting American culture through an Italian mindset, the label combines the authenticity of both countries with music, art and fashion as the main inspirations. Carefully selecting fabrics, Ragazzi takes his time when producing the provocative slogans that his brand is now renowned for. Entirely unique, they are designed to not play by the rules.
When it comes to women’s Palm Angels expect sweats, oversized t-shirts and low top trainers. Alongside its infamous tracksuits, Ragazzi captures the Venice Beach culture through palm tree prints, graffiti spray t-shirts and gothic scripts scrawled on sweatshirts.
Curated by those who, when growing up, would have been found at the skate park instead of playing at home with toys, the brand’s dark humoured, ‘Kill the Bear’ mascot features heavily throughout each collection. Evolving beyond a brand, it's the world around Palm Angels that holds unrivalled inspiration.
