Supreme's tapping Missoni for a Fall 2021 collaboration, bringing together the Italian luxury house's signature bright knitwear with Supreme's streetwear sensibility. For those less familiar, Missoni built its reputation on distinctive, colorful knit patterns that draw from everything from Guatemalan textiles to Abstract Expressionism - a technique refined since founders Ottavio and Rosita Missoni opened their studio north of Milan in the late 1940s. Ottavio's technical approach to pattern-making on graph paper, combined with Rosita's vision for garment design, created the chromatic style the brand's known for today.
The collection keeps things focused with five pieces:
- Jacket
- Sweater
- Polo
- Hooded Sweatshirt
- Crusher
Everything drops November 18th in the US and EU, with Japan following on November 20th. No pricing details announced yet, but expect the Missoni patterns to translate well onto Supreme's silhouettes.
