This collaboration came to life after Maison Margiela, led by John Galliano, directly reached out to Kubo Tite. The new illustration depicts Furoufushi Saito wearing the artisanal collection (couture with an artistic touch) from Maison Margiela.
Furoufushi Saito is known among readers as a rare character who has never appeared in the original 'BLEACH' manga. In the new artwork, Furoufushi Saito is depicted wearing the "Artisanal" collection designed specifically for Maison Margiela. The full illustration can be viewed on the official website.

A making-of video of this new illustration is also available on the official YouTube channel of UOMO, a fashion magazine published by Shueisha.
