GUESS JEANS has collaborated with Illumination and Universal Products & Experiences to release a capsule collection inspired by the upcoming film Minions & Monsters in Japan.
The collection blends vintage Hollywood nostalgia with GUESS JEANS’ iconic American denim style, making it a stylish choice for fans of the movie and classic denim fashion alike. It launches on July 24, 2026, and is available at GUESS JEANS stores and online.
About the Minions & Monsters Capsule Collection
This special capsule collection draws inspiration from Illumination’s latest film Minions & Monsters, which hits theaters across Japan on August 7, 2026. The collection combines playful, photorealistic Minions graphics with vintage denim silhouettes influenced by GUESS JEANS’ archives and 1920s Hollywood glamor.
The story behind the movie features the Minions taking over Hollywood in the 1920s, becoming silent film stars, accidentally unleashing monsters on the world, and then working to save the planet from chaos. This fun and humorous backdrop is reflected in the collection’s design, which merges fantasy elements with classic American denim aesthetics.
