Pop culture meets pop art

UNIQLO has just launched a special Disney Mickey Mouse art by Andy Warhol collection of UTs (UNIQLO T-shirts). The collection features the 20th century pop art legend’s unique take on the beloved icon.

This instalment in the Magic for All project is now available at UNIQLO stores and through uniqlo.com. Magic for All is a global project with The Walt Disney Company that combines the fantasy, magic and adventure of Disney, Marvel, Star Wars and Pixar with UNIQLO LifeWear, immersing people in excitement all year round through an array of unique variations.

Mickey Mouse is today a pop icon, known around the world and beloved by artists including Andy Warhol. The new collection showcases art from the Myths portfolio of screen-prints and silkscreen paintings that Warhol created in his inimitable style in 1981 in collaboration with New York’s Ronald Feldman Gallery and with Disney. It celebrates the 90th birthdays this year of both Disney’s Mickey Mouse and Warhol.

The diverse design treatments of this special UT collection celebrate the repetition and colouring techniques that made Warhol such a groundbreaking artist, featuring a single Mickey Mouse from his Double Mickey Mouse piece and even a triple Mickey Mouse. As well as T-shirts, the collection will also include sweatshirts and sweatshirt dresses that are perfect for autumn/winter, as well as kids’ items for family coordination fun. – Alex Chai
