Western American-Inspired Lookbooks

MANKIND's Tribe of the Horde Editorial Showcases Its SS19 Line

— November 8, 2018 — Social Good
Indonesian fashion label MANKIND recently unveiled the Tribes of the Horde lookbook, which showcases the entire collection designed for the Spring/Summer 2019 season. The label continues to dive deeper into the aesthetics of Western America and infusing it through design elements in its products. The latest seasonal capsule evokes this overarching theme through the editorial using Native Americans in horseshoes, camouflage prints, and headdresses.

Notably, the capsule offers items such as shirts with beautifully embroidered details along with a button-up shirt that is adorned in a graphic that references a special photograph. This photograph was taken in New York in an era where an Iroquois chief was insensitively treated. MANKIND spoke about the SS19 collection expressing that "The Wild West is one of the most fictionalized and romanticized periods of American history [...] These insensitivities end when we start to respect.”
