The NEPENTHES 'Out Dust Rial' lookbook is wittily titled. A play on the setting that it is shot in, the photoshoot appears to take place in a sort of asylum where fashion is the patients only hope of salvation. In this case, the looks are eclectic and bohemian, full of bold prints, bucket hats and slim cuts that would take anyone out of their mental stupor.
Yet the quiet and contemplative quality of the NEPENTHES 'Out Dust Rial' lookbook allows people to reflect on the clothing even more. They stand out against the stale surroundings. Focusing on the Japanese retailer's Spring/Summer 2014 collection, it features pieces from the likes of Engineered Garments, Needles and South2 West8.
