Moncler launched a new capsule collection in collaboration with FriendsWithYou to celebrate the opening of its flagship store in Tokyo. FriendsWithYou, an art duo based in Los Angeles, will enliven Moncler's down jackets, t-shirts, sweaters and sneakers with pop images reproducing their art works. The new Moncler collection is entitled “Happy Virus,” from the name of an animation film and limited edition print by FriendsWithYou. The collection went on advance sale for the Tokyo inauguration on Oct. 24-25, and will be sold in mono-brand stores from the autumn-winter 2016/17 season. Moncler's new Tokyo store, which is located inside the Ginza Mall, has a surface of more than 560 square meters on two floors. The store was designed by Paris architects Gilles & Boissier.
