Places + Faces (@placesplusfaces) has announced one of its most exciting collaborations to date. Ciesay and Soulz, two of the brightest contemporary talents in the lifestyle, fashion, and music space are collaborating with the ultimate gaming powerhouse Xbox (@xbox) on a range of exclusive gaming accessories and apparel to celebrate the synergies between Xbox Cloud Gaming (beta), included with an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership, and the digitally mobile ethos of Places + Faces. As well as producing the collection Places + Faces will be doing what they do best and shooting the campaign. The main campaign video and images will be directed by Ciesay and Soulz and filmed in and around London. They are to feature talents such as artist Slawn (@OLAOLUSLAWN), model and gamer Jasmine Asia (@JASMINE.ASIA), YouTuber GoldenBih (@GOLDENBIH), and music producer Kelvin Krash (@KELVINKRASH). Video will be released 18th of October on the Places + Faces YouTube channel.
Places + Faces is a brand that has built an engaged global community that encompasses photography and film, parties and festival performances, magazine production, and of course their apparel line which has reached cult status. The community is built around some of the world’s most inspiring talent and includes both aspiring and more recognisable names including A$AP Rocky, Maya Jama, Mowa Lola, and Playboi Carti …to name a few.
With Places + Faces’ whole ethos being built around being globally mobile and with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate enabling players to play over 100 console games on mobile phones and tablets on the go via the cloud, the partnership was a natural fit. “We’ve been fans of Xbox since we owned our first Xbox back in 2002. We wanted to create something special and exclusively designed around the controller. We wanted to create something that inspires both of our communities; a true collaboration between our brands,” explains Ciesay.
The drop will consist of a first-of-its-kind, dedicated Cloud Gaming Pouch bag that enables playing anywhere on your mobile phone or tablet and brings to life the Places + Faces ethos of freedom and self-expression. The design will be based on the Places + Faces iconic bag designs. The limited-run will come bundled with a Places + Faces Customized Xbox Wireless Controller and 1-Month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate which gives you access to a library of over 100 high-quality games to play on console, PC, and mobile devices including day one releases from Xbox Game Studios. The Xbox Wireless controller’s orange and red gradient design is an homage to the film cameras that Ciesay and Soulz love to shoot on. The design is a reminder of the magic of shooting on film when travelling and seeing those colours over the developed images. There will also be a limited run of hoodies and T’s – a staple for gamers and fashion lovers alike.
The items will be sold exclusively online from the 22nd of October via www.placesplusfaces.com and available for global shipping.
