Andrew Rizzo Caroline Hu is one of the fastest rising stars in the fashion industry, earning awards and broad consumer recognition for the design of her romantic, sophisticated dresses sold under her eponymous New York-based label. Having already accomplished a lot at a young age, Hu is set to check off another box with the release of her inaugural raffles adidas collaboration, joining forces with the Three Stripes Brand to deliver five contemporary re-imaginations of the adidas Samba.
Those familiar with Hu’s design ethos will surely spot the continuation present here. Her designs often blend what’s familiar with a romantic touch, and on the raffles adidas Samba, that brief materializes through a liberal use of elegant fabrics. Black and blue pairs feature fluffed-out treatments, while separate black, pink, and off-white colorways embrace silk textiles that don’t stray as far from the base.
The delivery comes as one of the most unique raffles adidas Samba collaborations in recent memory, exemplifying the model’s unprecedented path from indoor soccer shoe to fashion icon. Pairs will be available exclusively at juicestore.com and designated Juice storefronts in China on May 24th, 2024. No MSRP has been set at the time of this writing, but expect a significant mark-up from the Samba’s typical $100 mark.
Enjoy official images of the Caroline Hu x raffles adidas Samba “Reverie” collection below and be sure to act fast if you’ve got your heart set on a pair; these will surely sell out quick upon release.
