Natural beauty brand, KNC Beauty is calling all hype baes as they announce the launch of their limited edition collection with popular streetwear brand, A BATHING APE®. Making this BAPE®’s second ever beauty partnership, this new curation of exclusive styles is designed specially with BAPE® heads in mind. KNC Beauty x A BATHING APE® is an assortment of beauty and clothing items that honor streetwear enthusiasts who care for their skin just as much as their style.
“This collaboration is a dream come true as I’ve been a BAPE head for over 15 years,'' says KNC Beauty Founder, Kristen Noel Crawley. “BAPE has always been an inspiration to me dating back to our first KNC Beauty launch with BAPE-inspired camouflage print. Being able to use this iconic design and apply it to the ethos of KNC Beauty has been a wonderfully fulfilling experience for me.”
Making sure partnerships are aligned with the brand, A BATHING APE® saw the work KNC Beauty has done and was excited to work together to reach an untapped demographic of streetwear enthusiasts.
“The KNC Beauty x A Bathing Ape collaboration has been a joy to produce,” says Kevin Le, A BATHING APE® Brand Partnerships Manager. “We love the cool effortless vibe KNC Beauty provides and want to show our supporters beauty and fashion can go hand-in-hand.”
