Marcello Pisano, the graphic designer of Nss magazine, celebrated the recent rise of Pokémon Go's popularity by reimagining the iconic creatures wearing some of the best in streetwear brands.
The magazine shows characters like Pikachu, Blastoise and Charmander modeling the urban clothing -- showing off the Fall/Winter collections from high-end streetwear brands like MISBHV, Off-White, Vetements, GCDS and Gosha Rubchinskiy. The resulting representations give the characters a fresh attitude that comes with their newly appointed urban styles.
Pikachu is depicted with a black Vetements hat and hoodie, sporting a cool wink and a silver chain. Meanwhile, Charmander's orange aura is complemented by a vibrant MISBHV piece and Squirtle wears an elaborate pair of sunglasses and an oversized Gosha Rubchinskiy tee.
