LOS ANGELES—Richardson on Thursday announced a collaboration with Brazzers in honor of the brand's 20th anniversary.
The limited edition capsule collection presents an array of branded merch commemorating their top models and paying tribute to the trending styles of the early noughties.
“This collaboration with Richardson celebrates what Brazzers does best—turning fantasy into reality,” said Alex Kekesi, Aylo’s Head of Brand and Community. “Brazzers is synonymous with quality and pleasure, and this capsule collection pays homage to the stars who’ve made Brazzers the number one name in original adult entertainment over the past twenty years. Richardson’s defiant, seductive, and unconventional approach to fashion makes them the perfect match to fuse our shared worlds of art, sex, and culture.”
Modeled by ZZ contract stars Luna Star, Kira Noir, Ryan Reid, Abigaiil Morris, Jordi El Niño Polla, and Ricky Johnson for a special anniversary campaign, the streetwear capsule honors the stars who have made Brazzers famous. Spanning a soccer jersey, t-shirt, hoodie, swimsuit, ball cap, socks, and necklace, the collection will be available for purchase in-store at Richardson in Los Angeles and New York City, online at us.richardsonshop.com, Brazzers officialzzstore.com, and boutique retailers Gr8 in Tokyo, Oktyabr Skateshop in Moscow, Worksout and Heights in Seoul, Frontier in Los Angeles, and HBX in Hong Kong.
“We are honored to collaborate with Brazzers in celebration of their 20 years of excellence—Brazzers and the stars represented in this collection are the gold standard of the adult video industry. Brazzers deserves their medals," said Andrew Richardson, founder and creative director of Richardson.
The Richardson X Brazzers Capsule Collection includes:
A Black Soccer Jersey riffs on the club uniform, remixing both Brazzers and Richardson iconography into sponsor/team emblems, and transforms Brazzers’ “double Zs” into a graphic tessellated pattern. Some White over-the-knee Tube Socks continue the soccer theme, adorned with yellow and black contrasting stripes sporting Brazzers and Richardson logos.
The T-Shirt and Hoodie draw from classic Brazzers’ archetypes—firefighter, waitress, construction worker—for commemorative Brazzers Best in Class screenprinted graphics featuring contract stars Abella Danger, Abigail Morris, Alexis Fawx, Angela White, Cherie Deville, Kayley Gunner, Kira Noir, Lily Lou, Luna Star, and Ryan Reid. Both are available in Black.
Paying homage to the era of Brazzers’ founding, a Rhinestone Hat and Onepiece Swimsuit call back to the light wash jeans and bedazzling of the noughties. The Blue denim Rhinestone Hat is embroidered with a rhinestone Brazzers logo and made in a frayed light wash denim fabric—the same finish is sublimated on the Onepiece Swimsuit. Adorned with a rhinestone Brazzers logo across the chest, the Onepiece Swimsuit also features high cut legs and a low scooped back branded with a Richardson logo and glyph tramp stamp.
The release’s final item reworks the classic Richardson Screw Necklace, adorning the charm with Brazzers’ ZZ icon. The gold plated screw comes with a matching fine gold chain.
Richardson began in 1998 as an independent, fine-radical magazine exploring art, sex, and culture founded by creative director, Andrew Richardson. In 2003, a t-shirt collaboration with influential streetwear brand, Supreme, marked the expansion of the Richardson brand. Today, in addition to publishing, Richardson offers a full line of apparel, international retail establishments, multi-media communications, organized exhibitions and other promotional events.
