After announcing the collaborative range by Bape and Comme des Garcons PLAY last week, we can finally give you a look at some first pieces of the collection. As it turns out these were not real.

UPDATE: We just got word from the Bape Marketing department that the t-shirts shown here are actually fake. Sorry for the confusion guys and congrats to who ever did it, they came out pretty good. Hopefully we can soon show you the real collaboration between the two brands. The official collection by the two brands will be revealed on March 8th, 2012, and seems to be exclusive to the new Dover Street Market Ginza. For now only the above mashed logo design is official.

Cathy Horyn of The New York Times reports on Matt Groening’s forthcoming collaboration with Comme des Garcons PLAY in a story entitled “Binky and Sheba, Meet Rei.”

“I happened to see these new “Life in Hell” T-shirts—a collaboration between Rei Kawakubo and Matt Groening, the creator of the comic strip and, of course, “The Simpsons”—when I was visiting the Comme des Garçons showroom in Paris early this week. I thought they were quite sweet and demented, even if you don’t love rabbits.”

The four shirts seen above will be available in Comme des Garcons stores starting March 15, 2011.
