Clothing brand Benibla launched an extremely limited graffiti streetwear collection, informed by legendary street artist FUZI's illustrations. The label puts a definite vigilante twist on its clothing line with the 'Ignorant Style'—an artistic approach pioneered by FUZI in the mid 90s and one that found itself represented in tattoo designs and wall murals.
The label and the artist premiered their styled graffiti streetwear collaboration at the secret Traphouse (Paris 18), where the party was filled with special releases of tattoos, silkscreens, comic books, as well as DJs.
The connection between the two parties was strengthened and made official when FUZI went back to his roots and tattooed Benibla's founder in a laundromat.
