Based on the early preview, it appears the collection will consist of down jackets, knitwear, t-shirts, and -- a first for the brand -- a full-piece suit. Artworks printed onto the clothing include Basquiat's paintings 'Evil Thoughts' and 'griots' -- one of his most famous pieces that features an abstract depiction of poets in West Africa. Elsewhere the artist's [vibrant and abstract graphics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mungo-thomson-x-sacai) are seen donning plain white or black t-shirts and long sleeves, while puffer jackets arrive fully wrapped in his signature, colorful pieces. The entire EAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT x SOULGOODS series is set to launch on December 22 and can be purchased on SOULGOODS' website.
