Collaboration - 11/5/24
JW Anderson launches a special capsule with Guinness, the renowned Irish company founded by Arthur Guinness in 1759.
The capsule is an expansion on the collaboration first unveiled in June this year as a part of the Men’s Spring Summer and Women’s Resort 2025 show.
The collection features two limited edition T-shirts, a sweatshirt and a jumper.
The collection displays graphics from iconic Guinness prints – a smiling pint is shown across a black and white baseball T-shirt, with, ‘aren’t you glad you’ve had a Guinness’ printed underneath.
The same grinning pint print features on a black cotton sweatshirt, embellished with embroidered frothing pearls spelling out ‘Guinness’. A vintage print of a Guinness pint similarly features on a black and white cotton baseball T-shirt.
The Guinness logo and Harp, as brandished on St James’ Gate in Dublin, is displayed alongside the JW Anderson logo on a knitted merino wool jumper, celebrating the unrivalled craft and creativity uniting both brands.
Quote from Jonathan Anderson:
“I’ve always been obsessed with Guinness and their brand. I think they are still today one of the greatest advertisers and I liked the idea of using their amazing graphics. I’ve always wanted to be able to show some of it because in fashion we think we are so radical but actually, they were way before all of that.”
The capsule will be available to purchase from JW Anderson Soho in London, JW Anderson in Milan, JW Anderson in Shibuya Parco, Tokyo and at jwanderson.com, from mid-November.
