The Yoshio Kubo 2013 Spring/Summer runway show displays a playful collection that is full of colors and patterns. Yoshio Kubo was inspired by sports for this collection.
The styling of the models shows the playful and fashion-forward attitude of the collection. Clown makeup, curled mustaches and pompadours are worn by the models, which is a funny nod to the ridiculousness of getting "dressed up." Despite the exaggerated styling, the Yoshio Kubo 2013 Spring/Summer collection is very wearable. Some pieces require a bit more confidence, but overall most pieces are interesting button-downs, shorts, blazers and tees. The exception to the wearability of the collection is the double-breasted/single-breasted suit jacket, which is very peculiar and stitched together.
