Jonathan Anderson‘s JW Anderson has launched a limited-edition collection for “Queer” following his costume design work on the Luca Guadagnino film.

The capsule, which dropped on jwanderson.com on Dec. 11, features graphics aligning with the film’s posters, central imagery and themes across ready-to-wear apparel and accessories. Pieces will also be available to purchase from JW Anderson Soho in London and JW Anderson in Milan.

Standouts include an off-white tote bag that features the flat-lay image from the film; two caps in khaki and navy displayed with the title “Queer,” an aqua blue sweatshirt overlayed with a still of Daniel Craig and Drew Starkey’s characters from the film and (my personal favorite) this rhino gray tee with a drawn-on blue centipede necklace, inspired by the real necklace worn by Omar Apollo’s character in the film.

The back of the hoodies, made in grey and navy colorways and with bead-embellished drawstrings, is splayed on the back with the quote: “I want to talk to you… without speaking.” Meanwhile, four sweatshirts, in grey, gold, bright pink and steel blue showcase the film’s title alongside film credits, echoing “Queer’s” official poster design. Additional sweatshirts in cornflower blue, light pink, maroon and bright green feature evocative images from the film such as symbolic images of guns and landscapes, and a flat lay of key objects from the storyline.   

The collection follows Jonathan Anderson’s Loewe “Challengers” capsule, which spawned the viral $330 “I Told Ya” tee that Zendaya wears in the film.

If we’re lucky, this will be far from the last film-inspired collection from Anderson — whether for his eponymous JW Anderson label or the Spanish luxury brand Loewe, for which he serves as creative director. The fashion darling was signed for representation with UTA last month, meaning more film projects are surely in his future.
