Edgy fashion retailer Lazy Oaf recently infused the infamous Garfield character into its latest designs for the summer season. The collection features Garfield's smug cat smile plastered over a series of fashionably 90s-inspired garments.
You might remember Garfield from your newspaper's Sunday comic book section as the cat that was always causing mischief and eating lasagna. If you were a fan of this sassy orange cat you can now enjoy wearing swimsuits and other fashionable pieces inspired by him. The collection features nostalgic one piece bathing suits in a shiny tangerine orange covered in a print of Garfield's face and furry neon orange sandals.
