Streetwear label Hélas has unveiled its Spring 2022 drop, a concise new collection that marries minimalist elegance with retro design codes. Set to drop on March 9, the new capule marks the brand's first release of the year.

Continuing the brand's penchant for '90s-inspired aesthetics, the new [Spring 2022 capsule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corteiz-7) delivers a range of old-school styles that have been elevated via [contemporary layering techniques](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphpaper-yoke). The collection itself has been organized into a series of categories dubbed 'ORGA,' 'CLASS,' '[POLO CLUB](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supreme-x-la-martina-x-jacob-co),' and 'MARVIN.'

The collection includes a range of weaters, hoodies, vests, cable knit sweater vests, graphic t-shirts, and shorts. The diverse range of pieces arrive in an equally dynamic variety of colors inlduing sky blue, pine green, cardinal red, beige, pistachio green, and more.
