Streetwear brand Extra Butter's latest tribute fashion collection commemorates the 30-year anniversary of romantic comedy 'Coming to America.' The cult classic stars Eddie Murphy and follows the protagonist's quest of finding a wife that will love him despite his royal heritage.
Extra Butter's tribute fashion line draws inspiration from the film's aesthetic and characters, ultimately producing graphic-rich casual wear that will definitely delight the Coming to America fan. The t-shirts from the movie-inspired collection boast images that depict the main character, Prince Akeem, as well as "the many faces Eddie Murphy played in the film." In addition, Extra Butter subtly references some of the fictitious businesses from Coming to America — Soul Glo hair products and fast food restaurant McDowell's.
