Japan-based fashion label elephant TRIBAL introduces its new collection for the Fall/Winter 2019 season. The design aesthetics are inspired by both punk and skating subcultures, similar to its Spring/Summer 2019 series. The new range highlights youthful designs that have been styled at a higher standard. The pieces are bright in color and feature accessible structures that are delivered with clean cuts for maximum versatility and wearability.
The range is comprised of comfortable jackets made from soft fleece and relaxed silhouettes in the form of both shirts and jackets. The slouchy aesthetic translates across the pant and sweater options as well, with the spotlight hitting the bomber jackets that are complete with patterned panels and the rider jackets that feature militaristic touches.
