Scharf, a Los Angeles-born artist known for his pop-surrealist paintings, had his artworks Faces in Places and Multicolour Rainbow Turtles used for this collection when it debuted in 2022, and this year sees him make use of a new work, Marevita, to colorfully pimp unisex swim trunks and shirts, beach towels, and a kids' swimsuit for this line.
Presented as precious collector volumes with hardcovers, The Artists' Editions by Vilebrequin and JRP|Editions are certain to make you the cynosure of all eyes while on the seashore this summer.
