Bianca Saunders Launches Unique Capsule Collection for Tate Museum
Bianca Saunders Collaborates with Tate for Exclusive Capsule Collection
British menswear designer Bianca Saunders has launched a unique capsule collection in partnership with the renowned art gallery Tate. This collaboration brings a fresh perspective to iconic works by artist William Blake, reinterpreting them for modern fashion.
Collection Details
The limited-edition collection for autumn/winter 2025 showcases Saunders’ artistic vision, inspired primarily by two of Blake’s notable pieces: ‘The Good and Evil Angels’ (c.1795–1805) and ‘The Simoniac Pope’ (1824–7). The capsule consists of four bespoke pieces that blend these classic artworks with contemporary design.
Conceived as a non-gendered line, the capsule reflects Saunders’ dedication to inclusivity and versatility. It features items such as a cotton-blend jumper and a long-sleeve top, coupled with a cozy wool-blend hat and scarf.
Inspiration Behind the Collection
In her statement about the collaboration, Saunders expressed, “Engaging with William Blake’s imagery has been inspiring, enabling me to weave his powerful symbolism into my design practice.” She aims to create pieces that resonate with both art and everyday life, perfectly blending thoughtfulness with functionality.
Availability and Pricing
The Bianca Saunders x Tate collection will be available exclusively through Tate’s retail platforms starting October 23. This collection marks the first of many fashion-inspired initiatives from Tate, which has previously collaborated with brands such as Jenny Holzer and Swatch.
Rosey Blackmore, director of licensing and merchandise at Tate, remarked, “Bianca’s work illustrates the bold, multidisciplinary approach we advocate at Tate. This collection successfully reinterprets Blake’s legacy through thoughtful wearables.”
Prices for the collection range from £75 to £135, making it accessible to a broader audience.
