For his much-hyped 16SS line at UNDERCOVER, Jun Takahashi worked extensively with the property to create some of the most hyped collaborative pieces in some time. Oh, and performing with his group Honest Boyz alongside talents like Pharrell Williams and Lil Uzi Vert for major projects like Detective Pikachu. Jun Takahashi, best known as the genius behind UNDERCOVER, is another face equally familiar with the STAR WARS property. Internationally he’s best known as the original founder of BAPE, as well as an original member of Teriyaki Boyz, but these days you’ll see him working together with a number of different brands as a creative director. It’s no secret that NIGO® is a massive STAR WARS fanatic with one of the most extensive collections in the world, it only made sense to bring his talent onboard. Teased just yesterday afternoon via NIGO®’s official Instagram account, then officially announced by UNIQLO earlier today, let’s take a look at the full collection below: With UNIQLO’s latest “Master of Graphics” collection, they’ve tapped into the immeasurable talent of NIGO®, Jun Takahashi, and Tetsu Nishiyama to bring their low-price UT collaborative STAR WARS line to life. So when they’ve been given the green light to go all-in on a STAR WARS collaboration, you know they’re gonna do it. If there was ever a fast-fashion company who’d have the sensibility, as well as the funds, to call on some of Japan’s biggest design talent, it’d have to be UNIQLO.
