The C.E Fall/Winter '15 collection is offering a line of striking collage shirts unlike any other on the market. These shirts are artistic as ever and approved by artist Matt Damhave.

The MD-Research shirts are cotton button-downs made in partnership with Los Angeles-based artist Matt Damhave. These super cool collage shirts feature a wide silhouette with a selection of Damhave's most eccentric work printed atop the shirts in a medley of square graphics that take over the entire garment. The collage of artwork clearly contributes to the brand's Japanese imprint of [psychedelic motifs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kenny-scharf-and-axel) and trompe l'oeil patterns.

Just the rest of the C.E Fall/Winter '15 collection, consumers can purchase these shirts at the brand's webstore.
