# Sophisticated Streetwear Collections BAPE Presents a Dover Street Market Ginza Capsule By Amy Duong | Published 2025-06-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dover-street-market-ginza-capsule References: [doverstreetmarket](http://doverstreetmarket.com)  [BAPE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-2) has just launched an exclusive [Dover Street Market](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bao-and-dover-street) Ginza capsule which readies for the summer season ahead. It has just launched this past weekend and is only available to shop at the BAPE store in the Dover Street Market Ginza location. The capsule is defined by a chic street theme elevated by minimalist looks and sophistication to bring attention to BAPE's refined modern fashion. It highlights a striped shirt that is decorated with the [Ape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hidden-ny-x-a-bathing-ape) Head logo and DSMG embroidery to follow. The shirt features blue contrasting lines and the slight branding adds texture with its stitching. The understated look is also joined by signature pieces with the same embroidery and a 'speech bubble' motif for a playful touch.
