The S/S '16 season has brought a lot of interesting looks to NYFW, but no designer has done the broken-down and eye-catching look that is the Hood By Air S/S '16 collection.
For the S/S '16 season, Hood By Air revisits its well-known chopped and screwed style for a line of 48 head-turning looks. A little less distressed than the brand's Spring '16 Menswear collection, the Hood By Air S/S '16 collection offers gender-neutral clothing such as double slit mini skirts, slashed button-down shirts, elongated jackets and a variety of deconstructed denim pieces.
Hood By Air also produced a lot more wearable pieces for the upcoming S/S season. Leather trousers, wrap dresses and pleated skirts may lack the Hood By Air deconstructionism, but each piece is still true to the brand.
