A Supreme Elliott Smith Collection? What the Hell, Sure

Supreme is launching a clothing collection inspired by Elliott Smith, drawing criticism from the article’s writer over the use of the late songwriter’s image and work. The collaboration matters because it continues the brand’s practice of releasing collections linked to musicians, including artists who have died.

The Supreme x Elliott Smith collection launches on 12 November and includes T-shirts and sweatshirts featuring artwork from *Figure 8*, *Either/Or* and *Elliott Smith*. Smith’s estate gave permission for the collaboration; the article also points readers to *Either/Or*, ranked fourth in a newly published list of the 100 best indie rock albums.
