Comedy Central Announces BROAD CITY Capsule Collection to Benefit LGBT Community Center
By: Caryn Robbins Dec. 19, 2017

In celebration of its 4th season finale, Comedy Central proudly announces a capsule collection for BROAD CITY and its new apparel partner Wildfox, the LA-based indie darling known for its retro-inspired collections and effortless yet edgy spirit. Wildfox is an ideal partner to express and extend the energetic irreverence and aesthetic of Broad City.
The collection will feature 22 styles, ranging from sporty crop tops to slouchy sweaters, inspired by Broad City's bold graphic style, created by Mike Perry, with winks at the character's antics. Proceeds from two of the designs, the Yas Middie Tee and the Yas Yas Yas Sommers Sweater, will be donated to The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center in NYC, in acknowledgement and appreciation of the word "YAS"'s roots in drag queen culture and LGBT communities. "We are extremely excited to have worked alongside Wildfox in creating the BROAD CITY capsule collection. And we're thrilled to donate 100% of proceeds from the two styles featuring the word "YAS" to The Center. While "YAS" was popularized by our show, it has a long, rich history in drag queen culture and communities of queer teenagers of color. In celebrating The Center, we honor youth who've suffered and lost their lives just for being themselves." - Co-creators and co-stars of Broad City, Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer.Viacom GEG Consumer Products manages home entertainment, audio, live/experiential events, and licensing for a diverse slate of television brands and series from Comedy Central, Paramount Network, MTV, VH1, Logo, CMT and TV Land.
