KILLSTAR recently announced an exclusive collaboration with the one and only Marilyn Manson. The KILLSTAR and Marilyn Manson collection will be the first of its kind, launching in the fall of this year through hand-selected retailers worldwide. Mixing Manson’s iconic symbolism on the brand's fashion-forward styles, dedicated old and new fans get a chance to grab a piece from the limited collection. Manson himself is currently in the spotlight with a number of fashion events, so this may be just the beginning of a "gothic takeover."
Keeping true to the KILLSTAR style and aesthetic, the line features a wide range of items such as bodysuits, knitwear, accessories and more, all of which are adorned with Manson’s own symbology and logos.
The KILLSTAR x MANSON match is truly unique, with music and fashion meshing perfectly. The entire KILLSTAR team has been avid Manson fans since the very beginning and the collaboration is fulfilling many dreams and goals within the brand. As Tequila-Rose from KILLSTAR says: "Getting to explore the darker side of fashion, whilst injecting the Manson attitude and philosophy – was a real dream come true."
