Psychic Hearts, a New York-based streetwear brand, expanded on its selection of androgynous apparel with a new collection that has a strong 90s rock-inspired aesthetic.

The apparel was presented with an editorial that was dubbed 'Since I Was Born I Started to Decay,' which as its name suggests, celebrates retro teen angst. Pieces vary throughout, with cynical graphic tees, fuzzy sweaters, mesh tops, hoodies, crewnecks, button-ups and more presented.

Psychic Hearts' 90s rock-inspired collection follows another unisex series that was launched just a few months ago, which took ques from New Wave music. Those looking to purchase pieces from the latest Psychic Hearts collection can find them online, where the editorial's looks and various other accessories are available.
