In addition, to further pay tribute to Basquiat’s enduring legacy, Vaccarello has designed an exclusive capsule collection in collaboration with the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Artestar New York.
Featured are a host of über-cool pieces, including tote bags, a backpack, slouchy tees and cross-body bags, as well as iPhone cases, posters and a Basquiat-adorned skimboard and skateboard triptych — a guaranteed draw for YSL aficionados and avid collectors alike.
