DAIRIKU by Tairiku Okamoto unveils a limited edition range with the Star Wars collection. The brand itself came to fruition from the admiration of films. The capsule celebrates Okamoto's favorite movie and has a total of two products. It kicks off with a black long-sleeve tee detailed with a graphic of a young Anakin Skywalker on Tatooine, a planet from the franchise.
This is designed with an embroidery of The Phantom Menace below. Following the graphic tee is a knit sweater that is donning a notable visual from the 1999 movie. It sees a young Anakin once again but this time he is seen alongside Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Queen Padme. The entire range is now available to shop.
