Brand collaborations today are no longer simple experiments but cultural statements: new objects, new forms, and new stories emerge at the intersection of different worlds. This season, we’ve selected five collabs that boldly and playfully redraw the boundaries of design, fashion, and pop culture—while creating objects that are very much wearable, usable, and collectible.
LEGO × Star Wars – Gingerbread Edition
The LEGO and Star Wars collaboration brings the special “Gingerbread AT-AT Walker” set, inspired by the festive spirit and the icy planet Hoth. The build offers a 697-piece AT-AT model decorated inside and out with gingerbread motifs—like constructing a sweet treat. The set includes a minifigure: Gingerbread Darth Vader, with his signature brown coloring and candy details, exuding a delectably festive vibe. It works as both a holiday decoration and a relaxing building project for the days between the holidays.
Stranger Things × Nike Dunk Low
Netflix’s cult series Stranger Things and Nike have created an exciting retro collab: the Dunk Low “Phantom / Midnight Navy” edition. The sneaker’s leather is designed to appear cracked and worn, as if it were a battered 1987 pair—from the Upside Down dimension itself. Its slightly yellowed midsole shows the passage of time, while the upside-down Nike Swoosh references the series’ mysterious universe. The project was developed by Nike’s in-house design team, and the collection rides the hype of Stranger Things’ fifth and final season. The model has been available since November 6.
Robbie Williams × Moooi – Introvert Chair
Robbie Williams explored a new creative territory with the Dutch brand Moooi, resulting in the Introvert Chair, a sculptural, organically shaped armchair designed to provide a sense of retreat and inner calm. Its frame is made of wood, the padding is high-quality foam, and the upholstery is a wool, alpaca, and cotton blend with 3D quilting, making it both soft to the touch and visually striking. The chair features a hidden swivel base, with optional cushions and a blanket enhancing the “inner sanctuary” experience. The collab debuted on October 28, 2025, and the piece is available through Moooi’s online store and brand boutiques.
Aldi × Agro Studio – Potato Jacket
Possibly the most unusual collab: Aldi UK and London-based Agro Studio created the “jacket potato” coat, inspired by the humble baked potato. Its brown, mottled exterior mimics a potato skin, while the fluffy white fleece lining keeps the wearer warm. The sleeves feature pull-out glove extensions, and a silver raincoat completes the look, making it feel like you’re wrapped inside a foil-covered potato. Bonus points for the photos: the street-style vibe shots were taken by the duo Harper & Mills in front of the brutalist Barbican. Unfortunately, the piece is only available in a limited run through a giveaway in the UK.
Unisus Club × Hortobágyi Bird Hospital
This collab is not just stylish but charitable: sustainable sneaker brand Unisus Club partnered with Hungary’s Hortobágyi Bird Hospital, donating a portion of the proceeds from every pair sold to support injured bird rehabilitation. The sneakers are green-toned, evoking nature and birds’ habitats, highlighting ecological awareness. Purchasing a pair directly contributes to the care and recovery of birds in need.
