The Stussy x Daniel Clowes Capsule Collection Makes Cartoons Fashionable
References: highsnobiety
The Stussy x Daniel Clowes Capsule Collection is another collaborative tee that the clothing brand is coming out with.
Fans of comics and graphic novels should recognize the name Daniel Clowes. He's most famous for writing and illustrating the cult hit Ghost World and now he's bringing his artistic talent to the fashion world. The Stussy x Daniel Clowes Capsule Collection features three shirts with Clowes' artwork on it. It's quite different from what Stussy normally puts out, due to its heavy use of graphic images instead of the usual brand logo that's normally the design focal point.
The Stussy x Daniel Clowes Capsule Collection is a part of the brand's spring/summer 2011 collection and three colors of the tee will be available for purchase.
