The MARKET x Powerpuff Girls collection features none other than – you guessed it – images from the iconic feminist cartoon the Powerpuff Girls. Delivering a powerful dose of nostalgia, the collection features short sleeve t-shirts with images of Bubbles, Buttercup and Blossom. There's also a sweater featuring Him – the girls’ nemesis – and a workwear jacket highlighting Buttercup as the star of the collection. As MARKET Founder and Creative Director Mike Cherman explains, "As kids, The Powerpuff Girls taught us the important lesson that as long as you worked together as a team, you could defeat any and all obstacles... we were excited to bring that ethos to life by fusing the ’90s nostalgia of The Powerpuff Girls with our signature playful aesthetic in this collection."
