The [monochromatic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-tag-collection) PopIssue Fall/Winter 2012 lookbook takes fashion cues from the world of [punk rock](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-war-of-the-three-kingdoms). Male model Mitchell sports black leather looks, graphic tees and a platinum blonde hair-raising coif, giving off a badass vibe that rivals any rockstar.

The prominently black wardrobe is the epitome of cool with signature pieces that include low-slung trousers, killer shades, leather gloves and combat boots as tough-guy accessories. The PopIssue Fall/Winter 2012 lookbook features a dark palette rich with opposing textures and a modern aesthetic. Simple silhouettes are paired with classic tailoring and bold decorative detailing.

This collection has style and attitude with an effortless style that is youthful and edgy. The [streetwear collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dickies-and-mastermind-japan) is fresh and dynamic with everyday staples along with memorable one-of-a-kind statement pieces that pop.
