Mercedes-Benz x Moncler by NIGO
Price: from AUD$ –
The next step in the Mercedes-Benz and Moncler collaboration with fashion designer, musician and
entrepreneur NIGO, the Mercedes-Benz Project G-Class Past II Future is a new art piece that brings in 90s culture by merging the iconic G-Class with Moncler’s signature design. Our favourite thing? The quilted roof. The soft, distinct puffer pattern adds a welcome contrast to the bold silhouette of the vehicle.
