For those who are looking for shirts with a fairly dark undertone, the Mishka x Death In June Capsule Collection is one to look out for.

The Mishka x Death In June Capsule Collection is a collaborative effort between the fashion brand and the music project that's been described as a style of "[scary post-industrial/neo-folk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palace-x-him)" by F5 to Refresh. All the shirts have a grim, dark, [macabre theme](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/serial-killer-shop) that while disturbing to some, brings an edgy style to fashion. Pictures depict strange, homicidal characters holding a blade in a threatening manner. Mishka has also included [polos and jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/death-wishes-jacket) into the mix so that there's something for everyone.

The Mishka x Death In June Capsule Collection is an impressive series, that will definitely bring an edge to the wearer.
