Takashi Murakami’s Newest Collab Is Here And Available To Shop

This time, the Japanese artist has teamed up with the Grammy-winning Colombian singer J Balvin.

After a successful collaboration with Drake’s label OVO last year, Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami is here with a new unexpected collaboration. Teaming up with the Grammy-winning Colombian singer J Balvin, Murakami created a selection of garments that fuses elements of music and fashion.

The new range includes hoodies and T-shirts available in bright hues of purple, as well as neutral colors like black and white. All pieces feature Murakami’s signature smiley sunflowers, and some of the tees are printed with words “Blanco” and “Morado” at the front.

The collaboration is currently available in Hong Kong at Joyce’s stores located in Central, Pacific Place and Harbour City, as well as on Cherry Fukyoka’s website. Take a look at the newly released items below:
