On the heels of Frame and Sotheby’s debut collaboration, another California clothing company and art institution are teaming on a summer 2025 collection. The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Pacsun are continuing their partnership with a fresh batch of women’s and men’s pieces marrying casual silhouettes, preppy designs and art-inspired graphics.
The Met x PacSun’s new drop features some of the most on-trend styles for spring into summer: elevated basketball shorts, baby tees, oversized canvas totes, cropped camp shirts, embroidered baseball caps, crew socks and Y2K-inspired spaghetti strap tanks. While some pieces are covered in notable art and colorful graphics, others opt for a more refined look with minimalistic text and logos.
