Malaysian streetwear brand and concept store CROSSOVER works in collaboration with Kide Baharudin on the new My Memoir collection for the season. It marks the end of Ramadan, and the collection itself is comprised of 8 bright pieces. This features silhouettes such as tees, the 50s themed buttoned shirts, a work jacket, a series of accessories, hoodies, and much more.
The capsule itself blends the artist's bright aesthetic which is strongly impacted by his cultural heritage with the childhood memories of Jem, CROSSOVER's creative director. He taps into the memory of his grandmother's homemade cookies in the traditional kampung village. The My Memoir collection is spotlighted by the rich bright graphics that detail the streetwear designs.
