Billie Eilish‘s fashion has included iconic outfits with streetwear influences, including baggy shorts, jerseys and baseball caps — and now she’s giving fans the chance to add her looks into your outfit rotation. In a new partnership with Converse, the 21-year-old has designed her own Converse that fans can customize through You by Converse.
The collection features a total of six pairs of sneakers: three Chuck All Stars and three Chuck All Star Platform styles. Two of the pairs have been designed by Eilish herself and include nods to her album Hit Me Hard and Soft that fans who get tickets to her tour can show off.
You can shop the collection starting Thursday (Oct. 17) at 10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT. Each sneaker comes with a pre-designed upper and sole with the bottom of each shoe featuring a translucent rubber material and the album’s title written in black.
Most musician collaborations feature pre-made merch for you to stock up on, but what makes the Billie Eilish x Converse collection unique is how it gives you the freedom to personalize your own pair of shoes. Whether you want to add your favorite lyrics to the upper or completely change graphics, you have the option to create a one-of-a-kind pair of Chuck Taylors.
The shoe brand took to Instagram on Wednesday (Oct. 16) to tease the collaboration in a behind-the-scenes video starring Eilish modeling the exclusive styles.
“CONVERSE BY YOU X @BILLIEEILISH is almost here,” the caption reads while the video plays “Birds of a Feather” in the background.
Keep reading to get a closer look at the shoes and start brainstorming your designs.
Converse By You x Billie Eilish Chuck Taylor All Star
You can choose from three different bases for the Chuck Taylor All Star sneakers including a star patterned upper designed by the “Skinny” singer. To make it more your own, you can click the “design” button and customize the shoes including the color of the logo, graphics on the shoe and what color the tongue is.
Converse By You x Billie Eilish Chuck Taylor All Star Lift Platform
Take your outfits to another level with the platform version of the iconic Chuck Taylor All Stars. Eilish designed the black style with “open up the door” across the sole, but you can use the design feature to make them even more your own.
