Multi-platinum musician Post Malone and Japanese artist Takashi Murakami have collaborated on a clothing line in honor of Post Malone's fourth studio album 'Twelve Carat Toothache.' The new collection, titled 'TMKK x Post Malone' consists of t-shirts, hoodies, trucker hats, and an assortment of accessories such as coasters, beer koozies, mugs, and more.
Many of the pieces feature avant-garde interpretations of Murakami's famous flowers and implement a minimalist black-and-white palette with blue, green, and yellow hues. Meanwhile, other times come adorned with diamond grill and butterfly graphics, both of which draw inspiration from Post Malone's album.
For those interested, the TMKK x Post Malone collection is available to shop at NTWRK's pop-up shop in L.A from November 16th to the 20th.
