MONCLER, MERCEDES-BENZ AND NIGO BRING NEW YORK’S CREATIVE COMMUNITIES TOGETHER FOR NEW COLLECTION

by Brett Edward Stout



Last week, Moncler x Mercedes-Benz by  NIGO launched a new collaborative collection.  The event was hosted at the newly opened Mercedes-Benz of Manhattan flagship dealership and was hosted by friends of  Moncler, Mercedes-Benz, and NIGO, including Alton Mason, Chloe Wise, Gabriella  Karefa-Johnson, Joey Badass, Kaws, Miles Chamley-Watson, Peyton List, Quil Lemons, Tobe & Fat Nwigwe.

Guests stepped into a blacked-out photocall elevator-turned-time portal, arriving at a past-inspired gallery showcasing vintage cars. They then moved deeper into the futuristic, newly renovated showroom, now transformed into a dining hall. Popped trunks of vehicles served as a bar, while automotive-inspired cuisine by the chefs of New York’s celebrated Nami Nori and desserts by innovative pastry chef Eunjin Lee were served.

The dining table reflected key elements of the co-created G-Class, such as metal bodywork, golden flower vases recalling the shape of jerrycans, puffer elements, and checked patterns from the car’s interior. Wait staff dressed as mechanics served dessert from gleaming toolboxes.

The event embodied a fusion of past and future, inviting guests to explore a space illuminated by the G-Class Past II Future car and signature elements from Moncler, Mercedes-Benz, and NIGO.
