Cookie Monster, Elmo and the rest of the gang from the Sesame Street children’s television series have been interpreted by regional fashion labels. These include:

    • B.Duck. The Hong Kong-based retailer launches a Sesame Street collection for adults and children this month, including graphic t-shirts, sweatshirts and pants.
    • Tyakasha. The Shanghai-based fashion label this month introduces a collection of Sesame Street apparel and accessories including lunch boxes, umbrellas and mobile-phone cases via its online shop.
    • Chocoolate. The Hong Kong-based fashion label will debut a line of Sesame Street t-shirts, hoodies and tote bags next month to be sold also in Canada, China, Macau, Singapore and Taiwan.
