Bladee’s newest project fell from heaven. Heaven by Marc Jacobs, that is. The Marc Jacobs subversion has recruited Benjamin Reichwald better known as Bladee for an unreal Spring 2022 capsule collection.
With his artwork spanning multiple genres including music, fashion, and painting, the collection draws on Bladee’s ethereal creative perspective. The Bladee x Heaven by Marc Jacobs Spring 2022 capsule collection consists of nine exclusive pieces illustrated and designed by the Drain Gang member himself.
Technicolor illustrations are translated into “dreamlike worlds and the subconscious mind into extremely energetic abstract compositions,” seen in quilted vests, baby tees, knit sweaters, ripped jeans, and jewelry. Oversized hair bows serve to further the polysexual outlook of the collaboration.
Shot in Los Angeles by Hendrik Schneider and styled by Bladee himself, the campaign stars the Swedish multi-hyphenate alongside fellow musicians Baby Sosa, Oklou, and creative West Adler.
Shop the Bladee x Heaven by Marc Jacobs Spring 2022 capsule collection now on Marc Jacob’s website, at Heaven’s Fairfax flagship, and at Dover Street Market London.
