Since its inception, Heaven by Marc Jacobs has proven that it has tip-top taste when it comes to collaborations, and the brand’s latest venture follows its brilliant streak with a collaboration with one the most ethereal bands in history: Cocteau Twins.

The five-piece capsule pays homage to the band, specifically their seminal 1990 album Heaven or Las Vegas. The Heaven capsule captures the dreamy spirit of the album’s sleeve design, and includes both clothing and jewelry — the perfect wardrobe for listening to beautiful music with incomprehensible lyrics.

Additionally, an exhibition dedicated to Heaven or Las Vegas will run from November 11 through December 12 in the gallery space adjacent to Heaven’s FairFax store.

The gallery will be the temporary home to original artwork from Paul West, the designer of the Heaven or Las Vegas sleeve, with album memorabilia displayed to the public for the first time, along with photography by Andy Rumball.
