The DIM MAK x ONE PIECE collection featured designs inspired by the Egghead arc from One Piece, showcasing character-themed pieces that reflected the series' adventurous tone. The collection included bomber jackets, graphic mesh jerseys, and tapestry-style embroidered jackets, with looks inspired by characters such as Zoro, Trafalgar Law, and Lilith. The color palette of the collection incorporated bright, bold hues, drawing inspiration from the island of Vegapunk within the anime.

Accessories introduced in the collection included embroidered six-panel caps, satin trucker hats, and faux fur-lined satin trapper hats, further expanding the product offerings. Additionally, the collection featured a molded silicone boot style influenced by the One Piece anime arc, demonstrating Dim Mak’s approach to combining functionality with bold designs.

“This collaboration between Dim Mak and One Piece is a dream come true. It’s a mashup of everything I love – fashion, music, and anime – all in one. As a huge fan of One Piece and Luffy, I’m super inspired by his drive, his fearless spirit, and how he turns obstacles into opportunities,” said Aoki.

The runway show included notable athletes such as American Olympian Noah Lyles and Jamaican track and field athlete Junelle Bromfield, who modeled the collection on the runway.

Toei Animation’s partnership with Dim Mak for the runway event is part of the company’s broader efforts to celebrate 25 years of One Piece, a globally popular anime series that has influenced various forms of entertainment and fashion.
