The Miss Van & Anaoana brand name is synonymous to grotesque, odd fashion and the new 'Oddities Collection' fulfills all our expectations with beautiful, surprising and grotesque designs.

This Circus-inspired collection is a natural evolution of the designers’ trademark features. The kaleidoscopic harlequin patterns introduced in the 'Still Summer' collection reappear along with new elements; bunnies, bears and lions and a beautifully odd fashion clown character. The collection includes tees, skirts and the coolest ever leggings.

The video lookbook from Miss Van & Anaoana (found in the below link) summarizes the beauty of this odd fashion from Barcelona perfectly.
