Contemporary artist Keith Haring has work that is featured through a collaboration with Lacoste in a joint capsule for the Spring/Summer 2019 season. The new range boasts design cues that are true to Lacoste's preppy roots, while also paying tribute to the late artist.
The pieces are adorned in Haring's signature work, comprised of cartoon-like figurines which are decor for jackets, sweaters, tees, and more. All of the pieces boast playful elements for the spring season this year. The range highlights sizes prepared for men, women, and children. A standout item in the seasonal collaborative range is the polo that is plastered with an all-over print. This perfectly fuses the design structure of Lacoste and the artistic touch of Keith Haring.
The selection is set to launch on March 27th online and in-store locations at Lacoste.
