Louis De Guzman, a Filipino-American visual artist, is collaborating with the iconic Japanese brand A BATHING APE®, commonly known as BAPE®. De Guzman, who is widely known for his sculpture work extends his practice into the apparel and footwear space putting his twist on the well-known BAPE® identifiers.
The collaboration includes a collection of t-shirts, outerwear pieces, and a refreshing take on the brand’s signature ROADSTA silhouette. The designs from the collaboration feature De Guzman’s signature geometric abstraction style and the color palette that has become synonymous with his work combined with the sought after BAPE® CAMO, APE HEAD, and STA graphics.
In addition to the wearables, BAPE® and Louis De Guzman have collaborated on a hyper-limited BABY MILO® Figure to be released in an edition of 300 pieces. The Figure features the beloved BABY MILO® character, seated on one of De Guzman’s “disruptor” shapes as well as covered in geometric shards.
