The Weeknd is no stranger to fashion-oriented collaborations, but his latest might be the biggest he's done so far. Partnering with BAPE for a new collaborative collection, The Weeknd will be dropping a new eight-piece capsule on Aug. 4. Originally teased when The Weeknd performed at Coachella earlier this year, the collection has been a long time coming, and today the lookbook has dropped in anticipation for its impending launch.

Consisting of t-shirts, hoodies, sweatpants, sweat shorts, and a work jacket, the collection includes a custom XO BAPE camo pattern. Also included in the drop is the original iconic full-zip shark hoodie with XO branding, and an exclusive rug. According to the press release, the collection took over a year of work to come together.

The lookbook, which includes The Weeknd himself modeling some of the items, stars a number of XO artists including Nav and 88 Camino sporting the collection. With a dingy, Polaroid aesthetic, it perfectly matches the dark, forlorn nature of The Weeknd's music. 

Check out the full collection in the newly released lookbook below, and buy the collection here when it drops on Aug. 4.
