Wilfred Limonious x Supreme 2017 Spring/Summer Collection
Supreme unveils its latest collab alongside four new tees.
Following news of its upcoming Louis Vuitton pop-up locations, Supreme has unveiled its latest collaborative endeavor. Hot on the heels of last week’s Coleman CT200U Mini Bike release comes an homage to the late Wilfred Limonious. Recognized as the father of “dancehall art,” the prolific Jamaican illustrator began his career illustrating comics for The Star newspaper in 1970 before illustrating the publications of the island’s national literacy program, JAMAL (Jamaican Movement for the Advancement of Literacy). Ultimately, Limonious is best known for the album covers and record label logos he designed throughout the ’80s and ’90s for the likes of Power House, Studio One, Techniques, Jammy’s, Midnight Rock, Scar Face Music, Dennis Star International, Ujama, Volcano and Taxi.
Look for Supreme’s collab with the Limonious Estate and One Love Books — featuring a group of tees decorated with Limonious’s original artwork — to drop alongside four new summer T-shirts this Thursday, June 29, online and at Supreme’s New York, Los Angeles, London and Paris locations before hitting Japan on July 1.
