ALOYE Teamed Up with Doraemon for an Exclusive BEAMS T Collection
Riley von Niessen — April 18, 2017 — Fashion
ALOYE, a Tokyo-based fashion brand that's headed by three graphic designers, recently collaborated with Doraemon, a popular Japanese manga series that's illustrated by Fujiko F. Fujio, for a capsule collection.
Included in the series are a number of t-shirts, all of which feature bold graphic prints that were inspired by the manga series. On one tee, the main character, also called Doraemon, decorates one side, while a minimalist pinstripe pattern takes over the other side. Other tees feature the robotic cat character a little more subtly, as they make use of black and white color palettes, as well as more abstract designs.
The ALOYE and Doraemon capsule collections are available at Japanese BEAMS T locations and at ALOYE's pop-up shop.
