“If Robert were alive today, he’d surely be wearing Chrome Hearts.”
November 15, 2006, New York. The collaboration “CHROME HEARTS FOR MAPPLETHORPE” between Chrome Hearts and the Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation was born when someone remarked during a casual dinner with friends in São Paulo, Brazil, “If Robert were alive today, he’d surely be wearing Chrome Hearts.” The items in the “CHROME HEARTS FOR MAPPLETHORPE” collection, spanning apparel, jewelry, and accessories, caused a sensational stir upon their release.
This time, the collaboration items with Robert Mapplethorpe, themed around “New York,” will be on display until the end of July. The new color scarves are made with silk chiffon, featuring a lighter and more beautiful finish. The subdued sheen of the material makes it easy for men to wear, and the prints are a stunning collaboration of Mapplethorpe’s magnificent photographs with Chrome Hearts’ floral cross and plus motifs.
Additionally, the new punk series rings, “Pete Punk,” are designed to be layered and come in four variations with cross and pyramid stud motifs. Adorn your space beautifully with the world of Chrome Hearts, alongside CHROME HEARTS FOR MAPPLETHORPE.
