Models smoking on the runway is nothing new. Everyone from Kate Moss to Cara Delevigne, Edie Campbell to Linda Evangelista, has lit up a Marlboro Gold while strutting down a catwalk. The fashion industry’s relationship with cigarettes goes way back, and yet, we don’t often see fashion brands collaborate directly with the smoking companies – until now. Today (May 29), Palace Skateboards has revealed a new partnership with one of the world’s oldest rolling paper brands, Rizla.
The 14-piece capsule collection goes live online today, and includes a classic race jacket, hoodies, rugby shirts, mesh jerseys, t-shirts and caps, each finished with the dual branding. There are even Palace-branded Rizlas and an ashtray. Remember, cigarettes are very bad for you – in fact, let’s replace smoking Rizlas with wearing them instead.
