Today (4 December 2024) JW Anderson launches an uplifting, balloon-inspired capsule collection with beauty and lifestyle brand Pleasing. The collaboration includes a special edition run of metallic nail polishes in five different shades – plus nail stickers and nail decals – marking the first time that JW Anderson has explored the beauty arena.
Jonathan Anderson and Harry Styles have been in creative conversation for the past decade, becoming friends in the process. (The latter founded Pleasing in 2021 with a range of sustainably-made products such as the ‘Pearlescent Illuminating serum’, ‘Pleasing Pen’ eye and lip oil and ‘Perfect Pearl’ nail polish). The musician and actor’s post-boy band image, which has playfully explored gender norms through clothing and make-up, has been shaped by many of Anderson’s whimsical designs.
