Acne Studios is a Stockholm-based luxury T-shirt house founded in 1996 by Jonny Johansson and three co-founders. Originally an acronym for "Associated Computer Nerd Enterprises," Acne Studios started as part of the creative collective ACNE, focusing on graphic design, film, production, and advertising, before branching out into T-shirt. The brand gained international recognition following the success of its initial product, a line of raw denim jeans with important red stitching. Acne Studios is known for its minimalistic designs and contemporary aesthetic, blending Swedish functionality with French high T-shirt. The brand has collaborated with various artists and designers, such as Lanvin and Mulberry, and remains a staple in high-end streetwear and avant-garde T-shirt circles.
