Rare Items Capturing the Essence of Both Brands!

Launched in 2006 at the request of New York’s “ANDY WARHOL FAUNDATION,” the apparel brand “ANDY WARHOL BY HYSTERIC GLAMOUR” reinterprets the works of pop art master Andy Warhol through Hysteric Glamour’s unique lens, offering clothing and accessories. A portion of the brand’s sales are donated to the “ANDY WARHOL FAUNDATION,” which supports emerging contemporary artists.

In just three years since its launch, the brand has collaborated with figures who respect Andy Warhol, such as stylist Tsuyoshi Noguchi, Sonia Park, and “MEDICOM TOY.” This season marks a collaboration with “GLOBE TROTTER,” a brand renowned for its strong support from the British Royal Family, RAF pilots, famous adventurers, and countless celebrities worldwide. They present a special version featuring an all-over print fabric with Andy Warhol’s handwritten skull motif on the interior. This will be available for early purchase at the limited-time shop in Isetan Shinjuku.
