UNIQLO is launching a special UT (UNIQLO T-shirt) collection to celebrate the KAWS + Warhol exhibition, currently on display at The Andy Warhol Museum in the U.S. and set to tour internationally. Starting Friday, August 23rd, this unique collection will be available in UNIQLO stores worldwide and online at uniqlo.com.
A Collaboration of Art Legends
This collection is a creative collaboration between two iconic artists—Andy Warhol, a key figure in 20th-century art, and KAWS, a contemporary art star. The designs blend familiar imagery from both artists, giving fans a chance to connect with their work in a fresh and accessible way. Additionally, an art book featuring the KAWS + Warhol exhibition will be available exclusively at UNIQLO stores and online before its wider release.
From T-Shirts to Jackets: A Complete Capsule Collection
The KAWS + Warhol UT Collection is a comprehensive lineup created in collaboration with The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. It continues Warhol’s legacy by making his art available to everyone through unique commercial products. The collection includes a variety of items, from T-shirts and sweatshirts to coach jackets and tote bags. There’s even a kids' lineup, ensuring that art lovers of all ages can enjoy the worlds of KAWS and Andy Warhol.
Exclusive Art Book Release
In addition to the apparel, UNIQLO will offer an exclusive art book that showcases the works of KAWS and Andy Warhol side-by-side. This book provides new perspectives on these two influential artists, featuring interviews with KAWS, essays by art historians, and photos from the exhibition. Customers who purchase the book at UNIQLO will receive a limited edition shoulder bag as a gift. To celebrate the launch, UNIQLO will also hold a social media campaign where fans can win a copy of the book signed by KAWS.
Moreover, UNIQLO stores around the world, including in the Philippines, will display large installations of KAWS’s “COMPANION” and Warhol’s artwork featured in the collection.
