Sesame Street, Uniqlo Ut, and KAWS Join for the FW18 Season
Previously this year, KAWS and Sesame Street worked in collaboration with Japanese lifestyle label Uniqlo on a collection of playful tees -- now, the trio work in partnership to drop a capsule full of graphic winter apparel. The new delivery is comprised of more seasonally appropriate silhouettes including hoodies, crewneck sweaters, as well as t-shirts. To accompany the apparel is a specially branded box that boasts design elements from all three names and a selection of five plush dolls.
The graphic designs are done in motifs that recall beloved characters including Big Bird, Elmo, the Cookie Monster, Bert, and Ernie. The KAWS character is also seen throughout the capsule as well, re-creating the Sesame Street characters by giving them 'X's on their eyes. The collaborative project between the three is set to drop on November 19th in Uniqlo store locations.
