The cult creator:

LEV TANJU

Founder of Palace

When a brand wants to

capture the eyes (and wallets)

of a younger audience, they

go to streetwear brand Palace.

Like Supreme before it, the

brand’s collaborations, which

include Adidas, Reebok and

Ralph Lauren, guarantee two

things: hype and instant sell-out.
