Officially part of tech-savvy powerhouse Apple, Beats by Dre wasted no time in releasing a teaser of its latest collaboration with fashion designer Riccardo Tisci. Most likely to be dubbed as “RT17”, Tisci’s initials are featured next to the unmistakable Beats logo as well as the number 17, both a lucky number and the years since he left his hometown of Taranto, Italy to pursue a career in fashion.
Further details of the partnership are yet to be revealed – but with the audio brand sponsoring Tisci’s super lavish star-studded 40th birthday bash (#RTBEATS40) in Ibiza recently, we are hedging our bets that it is pretty much a dead cert. “They made the celebration unique and memorable,” the designer gushed. “Music is at the core of my creativity, so it was only natural for me to have Beats by Dr. Dre involved.”
If anything, we might just be in for a very stylish surprise. Stay tuned for updates.
P.S. – Happy Birthday, Riccardo Tisci!
