“I remember when a Moncler jacket was, for me, aspirational — so working with them in the city I’ve called home for almost 20 years has been a lovely experience. This collection evokes the simplicity and practicality of an urban uniform, but with a beauty and elegance that is unique to Moncler. It’s clean, super comfortable and elevated, like you’d expect,” said Badgley of the collection.
In menswear, the offer goes from reversible jackets to coats that become vests through a zip. The fabric selection boasts suede and cashmere-blends, alongside the line’s signature Airsoft nylon engineered for an ultra-smooth complexion, as well as everyday functionality. The palette ranges from tonal beige to navy, gray, and black.
For women, there’s a focus on the diamond quilting with silhouettes nipped at the waist and accentuated at the hips. Duchesse satin and suede are mixed with tweed and bouclé.
The collection is available from Thursday in select Moncler stores and on the brand’s e-commerce.
Badgley is well-known for his leading roles in the Netflix series “You” and in the series “Gossip Girl.”
