Designer Mira Mikati partnered with New York-based artist KAWS to create an eccentric varsity jacket for the fall and winter seasons. The KAWS x Mira Mikati jacket is a sleek street style garment featuring KAWS' dynamic and eye-catching artwork.
This varsity jacket is a definite fall/winter statement piece as it bears KAWS' signature aesthetic. Always one to utilize bold colors, cartoon prints and a graffiti style, KAWS adds a variety of fun graphics, which accent the jacket's blue sleeves and striped collar. The jacket also features silk print and embroidery, which adds a subtle touch of elegance to this streetwear item.
The KAWS x Mira Mikati jacket is a limited edition item and is exclusively sold through Colette.
