Comme des Garçons creative director Rei Kawakubo has designed a new capsule collection in homage to the American pop artist Andy Warhol.

The collection of T-shirts, footwear and accessories for men and women uses prints and imagery orginally created by one of the 20th century’s most iconic visual artists.

It includes a rucksack (€378), while T-shirts range from €126-141, and the print sneakers are €189.

“I think Warhol and Comme des Garçons both work in the total area of creation, without borders and limits, and with a similar disdain for establishment rules,” Comme des Garçons CEO Adrian Joffe told the Telegraph.

The 15-piece collection went on sale this week at the Comme des Garçons in Paris on rue du Fbg St Honoré and at the Dover Street Market concept store in London.

Comme des Garçons regularly collaborates with other brands and artists including Coca-Cola, Converse and Hermès.
