French multinational luxury fashion giant Christian Dior has teamed up with none other than Japanese artist Otani Workshop to create a capsule collection which has the common visual element of an adorable green monster running through it.
The 'Dior & Otani Workshop capsule collection is designed to offer a joyous infusion of playfulness and creativity to men who are looking to embrace a fashion ethos that doesn't eschew a bit of eccentricity and quirkiness. Accordingly, all of the two dozen pieces that comprise this capsule collection feature an appearance from Tanilla, a miniature ceramic monster that was designed by Otani Workshop and sold for over $1,000 per unit.
Comprising everything from bomber jackets to t-shirts and sweaters, this capsule collection represents a marvelously satisfying and playful clash of styles and aesthetics.
