Artist Simon Claridge has garnered international acclaim for his fine art interpretations of iconic figures on silkscreen, imbued with his now signature diamond dust finish. This collection sees Claridge continue his homage to bastions of popular culture through a collaboration with one of the most instantly recognisable brands in the world; Playboy.

Inspired by the iconic showcasing of femininity in the 60's and 70's , Simon Claridge has captured the beauty of pre-celebrity culture in this epic Playboy collection. 

Following Playboy’s diamond anniversary in 2013, it is entirely fitting that Claridge’s speciality medium of diamond dust should feature in a fine art collection dedicated to reimagining some of the magazine’s most striking cover images. The collection also features for the first time spot-dusted black diamond dust!
