Black to Reality
Each piece hints at something familiar, like an mechanic’s jumpsuit, your mom’s high waisted pleated trousers, or your snuggly lovie turned cardigan.
Whether the dominance of black in in upcoming seasons are indicators of recession, or the need for more classic pieces to build a more sustainable wardrobe. Berlin based Reality Studio’s AW08 collection is [...]
