The DAAN 2013 Spring Summer Pre-Collection is an eclectic mix of pieces ideal for experimenting with your style during the carefree and spontaneous warmer seasons.

Designed by Dan Single, who co-founded the Australian label [Ksubi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/express-to-mars) alongside four others, the capsule collection features five pieces "inspired by models wearing big and baggy clothing," according to [Hypebeast](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jordan-clarkson). The bold paisley and floral patterned tracksuit designs are meant to be unisex and celebrate androgyny. Black and white striped with a red paisley print on top, the designs are a bit sporty and a lot hipster.

If you're a fan of fun prints and bright colors, you'll want to get your hands on the DAAN 2013 Spring Summer Pre-Collection before it sells out. The full collection from DAAN is set to debut in July.
