S’YTE, the edgy fashion brand known for its unique collaborations, is teaming up with renowned Japanese horror manga artist Junji Ito for a third time. This time, the collection is inspired by Ito’s masterpiece, Uzumaki.

The apparel lineup includes 11 items, such as jackets, coats, and T-shirts, all featuring eerie artwork and iconic scenes from the manga. Standout pieces include a wrap skirt-pant with a graphic of Kirie gazing at ancient ruins.
The accessories range consists of six pieces, including a scarf, tie, and bag, all with original designs. Prices for the collection range from ¥6,930 to ¥68,200 JPY (approximately $45 to $440 USD).
