The Prada x Vahram Muratyan shirts are titled 'Parallel Universes.' The collaboration has the Italian fashion brand Prada partnering with Armenian-born, Paris-based illustrator Vahram Muratyan to create a series of limited-edition t-shirts. Muratyan's signature style uses clever minimalistic design, and he has recently been in the spotlight for his acclaimed Paris vs. New York comparative city illustrations.
As Prada describes on its website, "Parallel Universes is an exercise that grows out of the drive to experiment with, and to match, new communications media and Prada’s semiotics; to be consistent with the present without nostalgia."
The playfully smart designs use bold colors and clean lines, creating an adorably chic capsule collection. The t-shirts will be available worldwide in mid-July 2012.
