After revisiting the school uniform with Stüssy , Denim Tears takes experimentation even further, partnering with Swarovski for a capsule collection that blurs the lines between heritage and opulence. Tremaine Emory, founder of Denim Tears, has never been afraid to mix references, and this time he reinvents his iconic Cotton Wreath by adorning it with Swarovski crystals.
From cotton to crystals: a new vision of Cotton Wreath
While Denim Tears has always been built on a strong narrative, this collection is yet another demonstration of that. The Cotton Wreath motif, a symbol of African American history, takes on a new form here. More than just a print, it becomes a luminous design element, applied with hundreds of Swarovski crystals to a minimalist wardrobe.
The sweatshirts and hoodies, crafted from cashmere and cotton, feature a clean, timeless cut contrasted by the vibrant details. The choice of materials is far from arbitrary: it marks a shift towards a more luxurious and premium vision of streetwear.
Available in three colors – black, pink and gray – the collection offers a minimalist design where the detail makes all the difference.
Available since February 21, 2025 and like every drop from the brand, this new edition will not stay on the shelves for long.
