After successful collaborations with Arik Roper and Ed Repka, Mishka has decided to continue their legacy of working with the finest artists that encapsulate the twisted and macabre. This summer, Mishka has teamed up with artist Richard “French” Sayer for three new shirts. French’s usage of twisted, ghoulish images, plus an undying love for everything metal, made the partnership an inevitable one for Mishka.

French’s latest shirt design for Mishka drops July 30, 2009 at the Cursed Scrolls art show at Mishka’s flagship store 350. Cursed Scrolls runs for six weeks and will host the opening party on Thursday July 30th at 350 Broadway. All three shirts will be available at Mishka’s online store and at 350.

FEIYUE shoes was born in Shanghai in 1920. It has been a reference among all Chinese social categories. It became famous during the 30’s for its robustness, its flexibility and its comfort later becoming an essential tool for Chinese martial arts masters. The brand has been relaunched in 2006, a collaborative effort of the Chinese and some progressive French.
Here we present you a collaboration between Feiyue and luxury French brand Celine, owned by Chanel. The shoe has been released mid March in Celine boutiques worldwide. It is an interesting collaboration, sort of unexpected and that’s what we like about it. The shoe itself is kept simple, just carrying the Celine logo on the inner sole, the lace lock and the tongue tag.

The new Issue of French Jalouse Magazine just released and Kaws was invited to work on the cover photo of Cory Kennedy, taken by photographer Jean Baptiste Mondino. Inside the issue there is a big article on the artist, written by Michael Dupouy of LaMJC/Sold Out.
The funny thing on this get together is, that in the late 90’s Kaws grabbed some Jalouse posters and in his usual manner painted over them to put them back into the bus stands. This time around he officially collaborated with the magazine. Colette also pasted their store facade with some of the posters.
More pictures after the jump.
