Following its first fashion drop for Spring/Summer 2018 that featured tributes to iconic artists like Picasso and Beethoven, Ignored Prayers launches its second installment of graphic streetwear. The silhouettes have a casual aesthetic that is only accentuated by the styled imagery and slogan placement. The second drop for Spring/Summer 2018 shares a similar construction as the one preceding it. However, this time the graphic streetwear collection pays homage to William S. Burroughs, Grace Jones, as well as issues a grungy shout-out to NASCAR Racing.
The techniques used to reach the intended illustrious effects vary, which makes the graphic streetwear's aesthetic that much more interesting. From the experimentation with different inks and pigment dyes to the employment of elaborate printing techniques, Ignored Prayers' second installment for Spring/Summer 2018 builds on contemporary streetwear aesthetic.
