Takashi Murakami and Billy Irish. Two world-moving talents collaborate with UT.

[Claire] UNIQLO!UT is a graphic T-shirt brand by UT Inc. UT has released a number of topical items in collaboration with fashion brands, artists, characters, animation, movies, and other genres.

This time, two very big names came together. Billy Irish, a singer who has taken the world by storm at just 18 years of age, and Takashi Murakami, a contemporary artist that Japan can be proud of.

This high-profile collaboration features a lineup of 18 T-shirt models for men, women, and kids. Caps and bucket hats are also available, making this collection a fan favorite.

Expectations for the new collection have only increased, as some of the designs have been supervised by Billy himself. Here are some of the items that are full of charm.

Men's ¥1,500+TAX

The highlight of this collaboration is a T-shirt featuring a graphic that combines Billy's symbol "brochet" and Mr. Murakami's signature "flower. The mysterious world view is eye-catching.

Women's ¥1,500+tax each

This women's model has a portrait on the front that has a great impact and a band T-like atmosphere. Printed on the latter is an anime-style Billy from the music video "you should see me in a crown" produced by Murakami.

Kids ¥990+tax each

UNIQLO is indeed a leader in providing even children's sizes. It might even be possible to have matching items for the whole family.

Each ¥1,990+TAX

Caps and bucket hats are also embroidered with catchy logos, and are simpler and easier to incorporate into coordinates than T-shirts.

To commemorate the launch, a giant 3-meter-tall statue of Billy Irish, specially created by Murakami, will be on display for a limited time at the UNIQLO Harajuku store, which is scheduled to open in June. This is a unique opportunity to see the work of an internationally acclaimed artist up close and personal!

In addition, those who purchase two or more of these items at the online site will receive an original key ring.

The items will go on sale at UNIQLO's online store on May 25 (Mon.) and at stores nationwide on June 5 (Fri.).
