The new apparel, including a puffer jacket, letterman jacket, and more, will be released on August 15, 2023. The photo has fans excited for new music from the duo.

“Don’t tease me like this. I thought this was the album cover,” one user commented. Another expressed their intrigue as to how the new project will sound: “I’m deeply curious how a reunion album is going to work and sound plus how No Malice will justify it in his press tour runs. Like why the return from gospel rap when he was adamant about sticking to it for years.”

The comments come after Pusha and No Malice debuted a new collaboration at Pharrell’s first fashion show as creative director of Louis Vuitton, earlier this year. Pusha recently discussed the possibility of releasing another album as a part of Clipse during an interview with PEOPLE. “I really would hope so,” Push told the outlet. “I really would love to, man, I really would love to. At this point I feel like we’ve been in a space a lot together lately, and in those spaces the creativity’s just been flowing.”

“So that’s where you get songs like you heard at the [Louis Vuitton] fashion show. Really what we’ve been doing a lot of it is just contributing with our friends,” Pusha added during the interview. “Like, ‘OK, Pharrell’s a creative director of LV, he needs music for the show.’ How would we not show up for that? How would me and my brother not show up for a Nigo album? I think the creativity between us and just the collective of the family that everybody knows where this started from, is something that you can’t just stop.”

Pharrell Williams’ London Fashion Week Looks Include A Khaki Blanket: Photo

Whether it’s music or fashion, Pharrell has proven time and time again that he has an exquisite eye for style. On Monday (February 20th), the 49-year-old icon was seen sporting a large Moncler khaki blanket for the brand’s show during London Fashion Week. According to DailyMail, Pharrell attended the Moncler Genius Show with his family, who were all fitted in similar-tone garments. Just last year, the “Down in Atlanta” singer debuted the Maya 70 Jacket as a collaboration with the brand.

From rocking his iconic “Buffalo Hat,” to busting out bold colors with ease, Pharrell has proven his laid-back approach to creating memorable looks. For the show, he paired the blanket with a matching jumper, cargo pants, trainers, and a puffer vest. Of course, the musician added extra flair to the outfit with his branded tall hat, as well as a quirky pair of sunglasses and a Louis Vuitton monogram bag.

Pharrell’s appearance at London Fashion Week follows the recent announcement of his spot as the new Men’s Creative Director at Louis Vuitton. He supersedes Virgil Abloh in this role following the entrepreneur’s tragic death in 2021. In a statement released on LV’s website, CEO Pietro Beccari wrote a heartfelt message to his old friend.

“I am glad to welcome Pharrell back home after our collaborations in 2004 and 2008 for Louis Vuitton, as our new Men’s Creative Director,” he began. “His creative vision beyond fashion will undoubtedly lead Louis Vuitton towards a new and very exciting chapter.” Thus far, much of the fashion industry is eager to see what Skateboard P’s first collection will look like.

Throughout his acclaimed career, Pharrell has balanced his music resume alongside his steps into the fashion world seamlessly. His first business venture resulted in Billionaire Boys Club, created in partnership with Japanese fashion mogul Nigo. The duo also co-created the skateboarding shoe company, Ice-Cream.

Over the years, the N.E.R.D. member has proven his effortless ability to fuse streetwear and high fashion, which has resulted in a number of collaborations. Pharrell’s first display as LV’s Men’s Creative Director will take place in June during Paris Fashion Week. Be sure to check out HNHH for future details about the show.
