The PRPS Spring/Summer 2013 collection lookbook begins with the words, "You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water." It's a call to action and an urging to carry on. Inspired by scuba diving, this collection manages to pay homage to the diving world without getting too literal or nautical with the designs.
The PRPS Spring/Summer 2013 collection features bright colors and some interesting stripe patterns. Graphic tees, light jackets, chinos and chambray shirts are all found in the collection. The items have personality, but nothing looks as though it is trying to hard. Walk out of the house looking carefree, but also put-together with this nicely balanced collection.
Most of us will have to keep these in mind for summer while we endure the winter, but it's nice to plan for the future.
