Welcome back: Dapper Dan

As a Harlem girl obsessed with fashion, it brings me so much joy that a true Harlem fashion legend, Trendsetter, Culture Icon Dapper Dan will have the ultimate resurgence in the new GUCCI x Dapper Dan Atelier. 
     This 4700 square feet of greatness to open January 2018 will have more than enough room for a                         store front, parlour and on-site production area  http://dapperdanofharlem.com/                            

 The Aetlier will use "GUCCI raw materials, fabrics, prints, embroidered patches and hardware" to make Bespoke Dapper Dan of Harlem garments, so get ready for all the kitschy (and I use that term lovingly) garments Dapper can think up in his masterful mind, roll them in sequins, glitter and fairy dust and let the amazingness begin
Throw back Dapper Dan vs GUCCI Cruise the image that ignited a social media outrage which that ended in a GUCCI x Dapper Dan collaboration, long over due and I'm happy it happened.
