Gallery 909 just displayed its Pre Spring, Summer 2018 collection in its newest editorial. The latest series puts a large focus on contouring the human form through its unique silhouettes. The brand's designer Scott Watts is originally a visual artist, so he has a good idea of how his ideas are to be explored. Watt's technical themes are implemented in every garment, featuring items that range from t-shirts, short-sleeve button-ups, hoodies, and trousers.
Every piece in the Gallery 909's upcoming collection is decorated with designs of the embroidered logo and graphic prints. One of the notable garments from the series are the captivating cargo bottoms that have a "four-panel suturing" feature, which has multiple pockets. Another unique piece is the double-panel shirt due to its diverse color tones and a button hideaway. All of the pieces from the Gallery 909 Pre-Spring, Summer 2018 collection are available for purchase on the HBX online website.
