Slawn Introduces Distinctive Aesthetic in New Trapstar London Collaboration

The Slawn x Trapstar collaboration is released on June 13. Five items display Slawn's distinctive artwork.

Olaolu Slawn and the renowned UK streetwear brand Trapstar London are scheduled to launch their much awaited collaboration on Friday, June 13. The collection is anticipated to include five products, encompassing clothes and collectibles. Slawn, formerly a guest artist at Trapstar’s launch event with Xbox, contributes his distinctive visual approach to the cooperation.

Renowned for his abstract, cartoonish figures—commonly termed “clowns”—Slawn’s oeuvre is distinguished by vibrant color schemes, whimsical dynamism, and a raw, unconventional approach to form. This collection showcases his innovative flair with distinctive items such as a hoodie and T-shirt featuring three balloon-like figures depicted in vibrant, saturated shades of red and blue against a black backdrop.

A notable feature of the release is a long tee that contrasts with the more vibrant items in the collection. Incorporating striking silver scribbles and large images, it maintains Slawn’s distinctive graffiti-inspired intensity and impromptu brushwork, imparting a visceral, emotive quality to the collection.

The Slawn x Trapstar collection will be released on June 13 through Trapstar London.
