Killstar's 'City Ritual' collection dresses the retailer's muse, an urban witch who mixes feminine and daring elements together seamlessly. The edgy retailer is synonymous with effortlessly cool styles that appeal to an alternative youth demographic.
While its past catalogs have referenced nostalgic elements and occult-inspired themes, this lookbook is more urban in its overall feel. 'City Ritual' is filled with urban imagery and highlights the label's printed sportswear staples -- from graphic hoodies to maxi dresses that are tattered at the sides -- along with more traditionally gothic styles that exude a darkly feminine air.
Overall, this urban witch catalog stays true to Killstar's signature brand vision and celebrates summer styles that are dark and dramatic rather than traditional.
