VERDY and ER Launch Heart-Themed Streetwear Capsule

Renowned graphic artist VERDY has partnered with Japanese fashion brand ER for their first-ever collaborative collection, a nine-piece capsule centered around a heart motif and a striking red-and-black color scheme. The collection, which launches on October 24, 2026, merges VERDY's distinctive graphic style with ER's modern, feminine aesthetic. ER, founded by Japanese fashion model emma and stylist Rino Nakamura, provides a clean design foundation that complements VERDY's bold and recognizable artistic universe. Emma, who has maintained a friendship with VERDY since the early days of ER, envisioned this collaboration as a natural progression for the label. The resulting nine-piece assortment features co-branded logos and signature heart graphics, applied across a range of streetwear essentials and lifestyle accessories. VERDY, known for his influential work with brands like Girls Don't Cry and Wasted Youth, has infused the collection with his characteristic characterful approach. The graphics are integrated into familiar silhouettes, creating a balance between ER's youthful sensibility and VERDY's impactful design language. The ER x VERDY collection will be available starting October 24, 2026, at the BEAUTY&YOUTH UNITED ARROWS Shinjuku Women's Store and Osaka store, as well as through the United Arrows online store. Pricing for the items ranges from ¥2,530 JPY (approximately $16 USD) for socks to ¥41,800 JPY (approximately $264 USD) for a stadium jacket. Additionally, an expanded selection of the collection will be featured at the Shinjuku store from October 24 to November 3, offering a more comprehensive look at the collaborative pieces. This partnership highlights the intersection of contemporary streetwear art and emerging Japanese fashion labels, leveraging the established influence of VERDY to introduce ER to a wider audience. The use of a prominent heart graphic, a recurring motif in VERDY's oeuvre, serves as a unifying element across the apparel and accessories, symbolizing connection and shared creative vision between the two entities. The collection's focus on essential streetwear items, such as graphic tees, hoodies, and outerwear, aligns with current fashion trends while maintaining a timeless appeal through strong graphic design and a curated color palette.
