Gucci Changemakers Partners With Tommey Walker For Detroit Vs. Everybody Line Of T-Shirts

As part of its Gucci Changemakers social impact initiative, Gucci has partnered with Detroit-based designer Tommey Walker and his DETROIT VS. EVERYBODY brand for a special line of t-shirts. This marks the first time a product collaboration has been created under the initiative, specifically, and in this third year of Gucci Changemakers, it continues to provide donations to non-profits in 11 select cities—including Detroit—that “support social change and help to build strong connections and opportunities within communities of color,” according to the brand. The other cities included are Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Washington D.C. A donation will be made to the 2020 and 2021 Gucci Changemakers North America Impact Fund winners.

“My partnership with Gucci is a dream come true, not just for me and my team, but also for celebrating the city of Detroit’s cultural richness and innovation,” said Walker. “I’ve long admired the creative genius that is Alessandro Michele and am honored and humbled that Gucci respects my work. DETROIT VS. EVERYBODY and Gucci share the same unifying ethos, to bring people together for a greater good and to transform a feeling into a cultural moment.”
