Fashion label NEEDLES delivers a new collection for the Fall/Winter 2019 season showcased in a bold editorial -- the latest seasonal capsule is entitled 'Neo Tora.' The designs are captured in a cherry brick background with a plethora of vintage designs.

The main design language is drawn from the 70s and this is translated in a variety of different looks. Some of which include the pointy footwear, bell-bottom pants, bolo ties, small leather pouches, and turtleneck tops. The brand's cardigans are paired together with boot-cut track pants made from soft velour materials. Additionally, there is also a ring that boasts a peace sign engraved into it and a pair of leather heel slides with the signature butterfly motif.
