Public Image Ltd. truly limited edition

The fashion designer Jun Takahashi and his label Undercover collaborated with one of my favorite bands from my youth, Public Image Ltd, to assemble a very limited edition line of clothing. The collection features mostly t-shirts with band photos and their ubiquitous PIL logo, and some snazzy blazers with the PIL logo on the breast pocket. The collection is available for just 2 days - June 5 - 7 - right now at Isetan in Shinjuku.

PIL were known for releasing limited edition versions of their recordings. Their first single was wrapped in a newspaper. The original vinyl and CD versions of Metal Box came in a round tin container stamped with the band logo. The original had 3 12" 45rpm LPs.
