Cost per Kilo introduces the new 004: a disobedient trash collection designed for the Spring/Summer 2021 season. The rebellious theme that takes over the warmer temperatures of the year are full of patterns. It focuses strongly around the evocative nature that comes alive during the night time and the enigmatic wares in association.
Some of the standout pieces are imagined with overlay detailing, textural seams, and enzyme wash processing. The distressed components make up the denim jackets, pants, and hoodie for a frayed look. Overlay detail makes its way onto the pocket components throughout the outerwear pieces. The brand also taps the help of graffiti artist Dimz on some artful designs that are printed onto the seasonal silhouettes of the year.
