Heritage labels often find themselves in a quandary. While their loyal customer base loves what made them who they are, this limits their ability to expand to new demographics and experiment with new styles. The keyword in that sentence: often. Not always.
Moncler, despite its far-reaching skiing roots that lend the brand to performance outerwear, has had no trouble in finding avenues to expand its output. Lately, the 8 Moncler Palm Angels collection has been concrete proof.
Linking up with Francesco Ragazzi’s Palm Angels is a sure sign of Moncler’s desire and ability to reach an audience more in tune with luxury streetwear than the mountains.
Inspired by the hedonistic spirit of ‘90s Miami, the latest 8 Moncler Palm Angels collection suggests that even in winter, summer is still the overarching Palm mood. The collection’s aesthetic is perfectly channeled through the Quil Lemons-shot campaign that stars Naomi Campbell.
Continuing Francesco Ragazzi’s enduring idolization of American culture at Palm Angels, the 8 Moncler Palm Angels collection is elegantly framed by Miami’s famous shores. Sportswear meets outspoken luxury in pieces like the gold Keon Jacket, shimmering track pants, and quilted tote bags.

Keon Jacket
Moncler is arguably best known for its outerwear, but here Palm Angels takes the reins, giving its puffer jacket a shiny, bold finish complete with co-branding.
Tracksuit
Palm Angels' signature tracksuits land in a range of striking new colorways. This gold iteration embodies the Miami aesthetic that 8 Moncler Palm Angels looks to recreate.
Clancy Jacket
Palm Angels Fall/Winter 2022 has featured this flames motif heavily and we're glad to see that it extends to the 8 Moncler Palm Angels collaboration, too.
Thompson Jacket
Rounding out the outerwear contingent of the collection is this Thompson Jacket which brings punchy brightness to a high-end down jacket.
Tote Bag
Quilting is a specialty of Moncler and few other labels have as much fun with it. Transplanting the signature insulation onto this tote bag is a playful way to bring new life to the classic tote.
Tod’s x 8 Moncler Palm Angels Gommino Driving Shoes
8 Moncler Palm Angels brings Tod's into the fold, updating the label's fan-favorite Gommino loafers with an incongruous flame design to the top panel.
