TEAM WANG design has collaborated with JOOPITER, the global digital auction platform founded by Pharrell Williams, to launch the TEAM JOOPITER collection. The collection features a range of items such as t-shirts, Tang suits, gloves, keychains, and sunglasses. JOOPITER is known for partnering with renowned figures in art and design, while TEAM WANG design is recognized in the fashion world for its minimalist and elegant black classic aesthetics. The fusion of these two different design languages in this collaboration sparks unique creativity.
This collaboration celebrates TEAM WANG design’s creative director Jackson Wang’s auction with JOOPITER. The auction, titled “Jackson Wang Metamorphosis: Athlete – Musician – Designer,” features personal items from his youth as a fencer – precious memories that attest to countless hours of training and competition, marked by the traces of growth and the sweat of hard work. From clothing to jewelry, from custom outfits for the MAGIC MAN world tour to the upcoming MAGIC MAN 2 experience tour, each item bears the unique imprint of Jackson Wang’s journey. These valuable pieces document Jackson Wang’s growth, bearing witness to his transformation from a top fencing champion to a world-class musician and creative director.
Jackson Wang said: “I’m very grateful that I can share the highlights and important chapters of my first 30 years on earth – from sports to music to fashion. It has been a dramatic ride so far with various challenges, and yet I am looking forward to the next chapters to come. All of these items are very meaningful to me. They may appear to be very different, but they all represent the same mindset. To me, the only difference among these chapters of my life would be the skill sets, what remains the same is the emphasis on creation.”
The partnership between the two parties represents a mutual appreciation and exploration of fashion and culture. JOOPITER, a global digital auction house and content platform, is committed to highlighting the value and significance of precious cultural and artistic items. On the other hand, TEAM WANG design consistently pushes boundaries with boundless creativity and courage, interpreting fashion as a lifestyle and belief. This collaboration is not just a clash of brands but a mutual homage to and continuation of fashion culture.
Jackson Wang’s auction will be open for global bidding on JOOPITER.com from June 18 to June 25. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to charity. The TEAM JOOPITER collection will be available for pre-order on JOOPITER.com from June 18, 2024 (ET), and will also be available via TEAM WANG design in July.
