DOVE HOODIE
2021-2022 - 460551 - $240ReleasedBackground: Designed by Demna and his team, featuring a Dove designed by Alan Pastrana, the Dove Hoodie was YGEBB's most popular item upon release and continues to be so. The initial prototype by Balenciaga had a YZY Logo on the top of the hood, a cropped length, a phone cutout on the front pocket, and normal cuffs.
A sample of it was first seen on Ye on 01/12/2022, on a night out with Julia Fox. It was then seen in the YGEBB Lookbook, modeled by Aisha Potter.
The Dove Hoodie was initially sold on yeezygap.com in the Washed Black colorway for pre-order, along with White and Beige, being sold on Farfetch. With no model images at first.
The Washed Black color was produced by Los Angeles Apparel. The one released in 2024 by Los Angeles Archive (A surname for Los Angeles Apparel to sell under) is a reproduction with incorrect sizing, prints, etc., and is an unauthorized reproduction of the Hoodie by Los Angeles Apparel.
White and Beige were third-party exclusives. In an interview with CNBC on 09/15/2022, Ye said that there were colorways he hadn't approved, as well as sites.
Black, Dark Grey, Dark Blue, and Dark Green were then released on yeezygap.com. The Model Images were added with this release, and male images, modeled by Victor Ogonna Ndigwe.
The Dove Hoodie would go on to be worn by multiple celebrities, from Justin Bieber to Shawn Mendes.
