Alexander Wang pulls inspiration from the classic smiley face, offering up a lightweight graphic coaches jacket for Spring/Summer 2019. The brand tapped new media artist KATSU for the zany illustration, which features an oversized and spray-painted iteration of the grinning visage.

The style is crafted with a red houndstooth shell and shaped with a boxy, cropped silhouette. On the back, the large happy face image is plastered in the center, giving the piece a contrasting touch of yellow. Snap closures line the front, while an Alexander Wang logo tab at the pocket finishes it off.

The coaches is priced at $995 USD and available to shop now from the brand’s webstore.
