Billionaire Boys Club EU Spring '18 in the U.S.
The EU Spring '18 collection finds its inspiration from the
late 1960s youth generation and their avid dedication to counterculture views
and lifestyles. The pieces in this drop see designs that stem specifically from
the "Gathering of Tribes for the Human Be-In", or Human Be-In for
short. The event took place on January 14th, 1967, a time when half the
American population was 25 years old or younger. The youth had the power of
masses, and used it to display their rejection of the political power that
dragged them into a relentless war—an inspiration seen on select pieces like
multi-pocket military pants, nylon flight pants, and a bomber jacket featuring
patchwork.
Various pieces in the collection feature custom all-over
print featuring classic Billionaire Boys Club iconography juxtaposed with
"Headline" iconography— representing the handbills and
posters made to spread word about the event
