Japanese streetwear brand [A Bathing Ape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bearbrick-aroma-ornaments) ([BAPE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-x-ovo-1)) has teamed up with rapper Drake's fashion label OVO to launch a new Fall/Winter 2022 collection. The new collection arrives as a direct follow-up to the two brands' highly successful Fall/Winter 2021 collaboration.

The new collection features a wide range of apparel, footwear, and accessories. Standout pieces include a co-branded Shark Hoodie, a minimalist black bomber jacket, and a black and white tee featuring the OVO Owl and APE HEAD logo. Rounding out the collection is a series of accessories, which include a keychain, socks, and an APE-HEAD couch cushion.

Interested consumers can shop the BAPE x OVO Fall/Winter 2022 collection on BAPE and OVO's websites as well as both brands' physical store locations.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Co-branded Streetwear:** Co-branding streetwear with other brands and artists provides an innovative way to bring diverse audiences together.
- **Limited Release Drops:** Using limited release drops to generate hype and demand can create opportunities for valuable reselling markets and increased brand loyalty.
- **Celebrity Fashion Collaborations:** Collaborating with celebrities to release exclusive fashion collections can generate buzz and create new revenue streams for both the brand and artist.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry can leverage co-branding and limited release drops to introduce new collections and create buzz while engaging with diverse audiences.
- **Music Industry:** The music industry can explore co-branding with fashion companies while collaborating with artists to create exclusive fashion collections and appeal to their fanbase.
- **Retail Industry:** The retail industry can use celebrity fashion collaborations to increase foot traffic in physical store locations and drive online sales through limited edition products.
