Lil Wayne Launches “Tha Carter V” Limited Edition Clothing Collection
by Staff Editor
To celebrate the official release of the well-overdue Carter V album, Lil Wayne collaborated with a number of style icons to created an extremely limited merch collection.
During an interview with Complex, Preston who’s one of the designers for the line states “…Wayne and Bravado have collaborated with Heron Preston for an airbrush-influenced t-shirt featuring a classic line from Wayne’s ubiquitous Tha Carter III single “A Milli.”
“I looked for amateur airbrush artists, and I found a bunch of them on Etsy,” says Preston. “I didn’t want something that was super polished or professional; I wanted to capture that amateur skill level—which is the same kind of skill level that I saw when looking at old airbrush artwork back in the 90s.”
The limited Carter V collection will include collabs with 14 different designers. The Preston design launches Wednesday afternoon. All other designs will drop daily up until Oct. 4. For more information on purchasing, click here.
