From selling spraypainted t-shirts in high school to co-creating Louis Vuitton’s first collection post-Virgil, Colm Dillane and his brainchild KidSuper Studios came a long way. And did we mention collabs with PUMA, Superplastic, Canada Goose and the NBA? Celebrating the avant-garde artistry of the newest brand to the BSTN portfolio, here’s some inspiration courtesy of KidSuper Studios and yours truly.
With vintage clothing serving as a profound source of inspiration for Colm Dillane’s KidSuper Studios, the fusion of old and new is the common denominator in this fit:
While the pants – decorated with delicate doodles – nod to hand-painted vintage gems, the shirt’s appliqué face graphic is an homage to the craftmanship of bygone eras. Some colorful loudness in the footwear section adds another highlight to balance the rather muted look.

The no-effs-given that made KidSuper Studios a household name in the first place are strong with this one: One can’t possibly go wrong with matching shorts and shirts anyways – so why don’t do it with some fun?
Never one to shy away from playful designs, Colm Dillane’s artisanal approach is ubiquitous in this ensemble, with the vibrant patterns injecting vibrancy and personality, while satin material makes for a perfect summer fit.

Embroideries, unexpected graphics, heavy-wearing fabrics: KidSuper Studios’ dedication to quality is reflected in their meticulous attention to detail, which – like in this fit – adds depth via a vibrant mix of materials and colors.
Elevating streetwear into wearable art, offering design aficionados a distinctive blend of style and substance, the slightly wider fit additionally offers a relaxed yet effortlessly polished look thanks to classic silhouettes – but with an artsy twist.
