In preparation for the Spring/Summer 2019 season, fashion label [Wacko Maria](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fw25-workwear) introduces a series of pieces adorned in a captivating [dragon embroidery accent](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tailor-toyo-x-beams). The range features silhouettes such as Hawaiian shirts, kimono-reminiscent jackets, suits, cardigans, and more. All of the seasonal designs are adorned with two dragon graphics over the right and left sides of the chest area.

The standout pieces in the range are the soft cardigan and the jacket with quilted details. The cardigan features silky material blends through its construction and a V-neck cut. The dragons are contrasted against the brown base of the cardigan with bright hits of pink and green to reference [oriental dragons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/year-of-the-snake-collection). The same embroidered accents in the same color scheme adorn the rest of the range as well. The dragon embroidered seasonal range is now available for purchase at retailers including Browns.
