Famed streetwear brand A BATHING APE® has announced a surprising collaboration with the sci-fi film classic E.T.

Academy Award-winning Steven Spielberg directed E.T., and the film made a huge splash when it was released in 1982. The themes of trust, courage, and friendship are timeless and inspiring, and the film has remained popular 40 years later. To celebrate the 40th anniversary, this new collection came into being.

The new collection utilizes themes, scenes, and characters from the film. When combined with BAPE®︎’s signature style, fans will find pieces that mix nostalgia and modern street fashion. Which piece is your favorite?

Fans of the film will recognize Elliott riding his bicycle against a backdrop of the moon with E.T. in the basket. The classic line “I’ll be right here” is printed on the upper sleeve of the sweatshirts.

The red hoodie is a tribute to Elliot’s outfit in the film. Meanwhile, new items have been released under the BABY MILO®︎ label, with the T-shirt showing Elliott, E.T., and the popular ape character lined up in a row.

The print on the back of the T-shirt is glow-in-the-dark, and the long-sleeved T-shirts feature reflective fabric. The team did everything they could to make these items feel as sci-fi as possible, and they are a great way to celebrate the film’s 40th anniversary.

Was E.T. a part of your childhood?

In September 2018, ten incredibly talented artists came together to celebrate BAPE’s 25th anniversary by designing life-sized BABY MILO sculptures. These pieces of art were put on display at Space O in Omotesando Hills. After four years, those sculptures have been reimagined as eight-inch figures in collaboration with BAIT! (Much easier to display at home, right?) 

The participating artists are SK8THING, mankey, Stash, James Bond, Adam Lister, Michael Lau, Eric Haze, Shepard Fairey, Shinsuke Takizawa, and Nishiyama Tetsu.

From April 23 until May 15, 2022, the second floor of BAPEXCLUSIVE™️ Aoyama will host BAPE LOUNGE!

The store will display a selection of hand-picked items including lifestyle goods and interior items made with BAPE branding, as well as products made in collaboration with leading furniture brands. During the exhibition, visitors can not only see the items on display but can also order pieces of their own at the online store!

BAPE LOUNGE also features products made in collaboration with MODERNICA, an interior design company creating original pieces by utilizing mid-century craftsmanship techniques.

MODERNICA’s shell chairs are still handmade in California, using machinery from the Zenith factory where the original was created in 1950. The company rehires craftsmen from that time to manufacture them, using not only the original process but also the same skills and know-how. The new shell chair is upholstered with ABC CAMO cushions that follow the shape of the seat surface, making it easy to sit for long periods of time comfortably. The coloring goes well with wooden furniture and will brighten up a variety of interiors!

BAPE LOUNGE will appear on the second floor of BAPEXCLUSIVE™️ in Aoyama, which is filled with archived BAPE items. It’s worth a trip just to take a stroll around to see the many valuable items on display!

While BAPE LOUNGE is open, archived items will also be sold on the first floor. Don’t miss out!
