PLEASURES' Spring/Summer 2018 collection, entitled 'Freaks in LOVE,' surrounds the idea of emotion self-expression and heartache. The interesting thematic focus of the capsule highlights destruction, heartache and self-exploration through design details. The label encourages consumers to express their emotions and thoughts through the provoking graphics.

The Freaks in LOVE capsule features pieces such as denim, trucker jackets, [graphic t-shirts, graphic hoodies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/billie-eilish-capsule), custom knits and [embellished caps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pleasures-and-polo). Some of the standout pieces include the Rudeboy jacket with plaid details, the button-down Evolve shirt and the Power Logo cap.

The entire PLEASURES Spring/Summer 2018 Freaks in LOVE collection is available for purchase online and at select retailers, with prices from $36 to $140.
