The Lazy Oaf for Nasty Gal Summer 2013 line is a vibrant slew of technicolor, print-crazy and girly clothes for the hotter months. Better yet, this summer collection draws inspiration from all the best 90s pastimes: arcades, bowling and strip malls.
The Summer 2013 collection features a colorful combination of Lazy Oaf's UK fun graphic illustrations and Nasty Gal's hip design silhouettes. With tight body suits, body con dresses, crop tops and slouchy pull-overs, this Nasty Gal collection accentuates all the feminine curves. Drawing on food for design inspiration, some of the noteworthy prints include assorted candy, bright flowers, fast food, zig-zags and rainbows.
In the promotional video, several young rambunctious teenage girls can be seen wreaking havoc in an arcade, munching on fast food and running around wild-child style.
