Queen’s Newest Fashion Collaboration Will Rock Your Socks Off – Billboard
Queen is known for its eclectic stage outfits and show-stopping hits, and that legacy will now be embodied … on your feet.
The iconic band has teamed with Swedish brand Happy Socks for a limited-edition collection fit for rock lovers everywhere.
Released today (March 3), the Happy Socks x Queen collaboration features six pairs of cotton crew socks ($16 each) and four pairs of kid’s crew socks ($8 each). There’s also a 4-pack gift set ($64) and a Collector’s Edition 6-pack ($96) that features the band in a concert setting.
The prints are just as vibrant as Queen’s music, using the band’s hits as inspiration — We Will Rock You (Brian May), Bohemian Rhapsody (Freddie Mercury),
Another One Bites the Dust (John Deacon), and Radio GaGa (Roger Taylor) — and pairing them with each member’s signature instrument.
“Behind every extraordinary band, there is a sea of extraordinary fans,” the press release states. “True to Queen’s legacy as music and fashion pioneers, their greatest hits and signature instruments come together with Happy Socks’ colorfulness for a collection that invites you to take the stage with them.”
Happy Socks is known for its artist collaborations, including the Beatles, Pharrell Williams, Andy Warhol’s iconic banana print and — most recently — Linda Ramone.
The Happy Socks x Queen collection is now available to purchase at select retailers and the brand’s official website.
