Brooklyn-based artist Leland Foster has teamed up with apparel fit expert Alvanon on a series of high fashion Santa illustrations. The jolly Saint Nick is reimagined in some of the most popular Fall/Winter 2017 menswear ensembles spanning Supreme x Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Raf Simons, Balenciaga, Calvin Klein and Vetements. Collectively, this project aims to “tap the potential of the men’s plus-size market to the fullest,” said Alvanon senior consultant Alice Rodrigues.
