Earlier this week in Paris, photo provocateur Terry Richardson opened a show at Collete, featuring his latest work with Supreme’s mascot of the moment, Kermit the Frog. While Richardson has shot for Supreme in the past, this is Kermit’s first time. Now he’s gracing skate decks and posters all over New York. As Complex points out though, this isn’t the green frog’s first venture into the streetwear game. A couple years ago Kermit graced some sneakers for adidas adicolor, which, considering the ugly factor, we’re all better off forgetting.
Back here in New York, hypebeasts of every all-over printed stripe lined up around the block, waiting for Supreme’s store on Lafayette to start selling the Spring and Summer line. But today, Supreme forced them to wait in the alley around the corner. It’s not clear whether they’re stepping up their notoriously snobby attitude towards customers, or simply protecting them from another possible scaffolding collapse.
