Lexus x Luar luxury driving gloves? Yes, please. They'll be available to VIPs at our Complex Brands to Watch NYFW party on Sept. 11. To celebrate the linkup and give a preview of what’s to come, we met with Luar designer Raul Lopez in South Williamsburg, where he grew up, to get a look at New York through his eyes and to hear more about his philosophy of luxury.
Check out the video above, and you’ll see how natural the Luar x Lexus pairing is. Of course, the Dominican-American designer behind Luar isn't your typical fashion week darling. Instead, he’s built his cult following from the ground up, starting with a small, $10,000 budget. That hustle mentality runs deep in everything Luar touches, including these gloves. Take a look, and you’ll soon get a sense of why Lopez says, “In New York, contradiction is power.”
