Lacoste For Visionaire V54 Artwork T-Shirts

SLIDESHOW

It seems Agyness isn’t the only one molded into a mannequin: Coco Rocha has her dozen set created especially to display some artsy t-shirts.

Visionaire and Lacoste teamed for photographically printed t-shirts as the fall’s edition of the Visionaire Magazine. The T-shirts are no ordinary cotton lizard-esques but signed by Nick Knight, Peter Lindbergh, Inez and Vinoodh, Karl the Kaiser, Pedro Almodovar, David Byrne, Michael Stipe, Richard Philips. This issue is in work since 2006 and it counts 4,000 copies printed on polos available at selected Lacoste stores, bookstores and museums. (more photos after the jump)

The Visionaire issue contains three Lacoste t-shirts (S, M, L) from the collection and all 12 images in a large white box. Pictured above is the abominable Coco Rocha print – a Richard Philips painting. Why this portrait-photo-like-paintings work?( I find them completely impossible to digest!) Would you wear a celebrity painted on your t-shirt? Which one? (here are the 11 remaining t-shirts from the collection, click the thumbnails to see larger image)
