M/M (Paris) release this press release a couple days ago. Direct from M/M (Paris):
“Last Fall, Kanye West asked M/M (Paris) to design the album packaging for My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. West had commissioned George Condo to create a series of paintings featuring the characters who populate his musical fantasies.
During the creative process, M/M (Paris) created a series of hand drawn ornamented frames to adorn the powerful and iconic Condo paintings.
Playing with the many possibilities of combing the paintings and frames, M/M (Paris) and Kanye West wanted to find a luxurious expression of their creative efforts - and decided to use the most striking combinations and transform them into voluptuous silk scarves.
The results are now being released jointly by M/M (Paris) and Kanye West as a collection of five full color scarves made of 100% silk twill.
Each of the five scarves features one of the album covers painted by George Condo embedded in an intricate gold frame with hand drawn lettering by M/M (Paris).
The combination of this luxurious visula language over the traditional Twill de Soie is the ultimate celebration of the magically ornamented sounds of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
Each scarf is produced in a limited edition of 100 units. The first half edition is available through M/M (Paris)’s website, and at selected retailers.”
These will be available starting Monday, May 9th.
