To commemorate its 50th anniversary, fashion retailer BEAMS has announced several collaborative collections.

In mid-August, BEAMS announced the ‘FLOW’ collection in partnership with ANA. This collection, inspired by the atmosphere of travel, features ink drawings by German artist Stefan Marx on items such as T-shirts and travel storage bags. A launch event including a live painting performance was scheduled for August 21.

Later in August, the retailer announced a triple collaboration with TATTOO STUDIO YAMADA and New Era. Centered on a ‘CHAOS’ theme, this collection incorporates American traditional tattoo aesthetics and skull motifs. The lineup includes New Era caps, a reversible thermal shirt, and a skull-themed rug. A launch event featuring DJ performances was set for September 4, with official sales beginning September 5.
