In a vibrant fusion of artistic worlds, the realms of contemporary art and beachwear fashion collide as Okuda San Miguel, an internationally acclaimed artist, joins forces with Vilebrequin to create a 14-piece capsule collection. This collaboration transcends boundaries, taking the captivating essence of Pop Surrealism from the streets to the beach, and back again.
Okuda San Miguel’s artworks are an enchanting spectacle of geometric harmonies and intense colors. They transport you to a parallel universe where boundaries blur. His kaleidoscopic patterns challenge the divisions between modernity and tradition, the human realm and the animal kingdom, shapes and identities. Just like Vilebrequin’s signature designs, Okuda’s art is an ode to fantasy and freedom, inviting you to dream beyond the ordinary.
Multicolored and multidimensional, this collaboration sparks a captivating dialogue between two icons—Okuda’s artistic vision and Vilebrequin’s timeless swimwear expertise.
A vibrant plea for diversity resonates in Okuda’s artworks, reminding us that humans and animals are all interconnected. This collection, made exclusively from recycled and organic materials, showcases Okuda’s distinctive designs on Moorise stretch swim trunks, tees, linen bowling shirts, and beach accessories, all presented with custom Okuda “kaleidoscope” packaging.
