Very Rare Vintage Pigalle Box Logo T-shirt. You might remember Pigalle from its Instagrammable basketball court, or from A$AP Rocky wearing its box-logoed tops everywhere, or from its celebrated Nike collaborations… however it be, if you were interested in fashion during the 2010s, you will remember Pigalle.
The brainchild of multi-hyphenate creative Stéphane Ashpool, the brand was a pioneer in bringing streetwear to fashion’s big stages. Founded in 2008, the buzzy basketball-inspired brand presented at Paris Fashion Week from 2015, when we stopped hearing from Pigalle.
Ashpool, who named the brand after the Parisian neighborhood he grew up in, has been busy in the meantime — designing France’s Olympic uniforms and opening an exhibition at Galerie du 19M, a cultural hub owned by Chanel, where he worked with Chanel’s specialty ateliers to create couture pieces.
