Martin Asbjørn is a Copenhagen-based up-and-coming designer, who delves into the rebellious clothing style with his 'Teenage Dirtbag' collection. The line boasts expected designs, but with a [high fashion twist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-3-capsule-2). Captured in an [angsty photo series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by) by Eva Al Desnudo, the predominantly dark anxious teen uniform design has been broken up with bright red pops of color, beige 90-inspired corduroy fabrics and bold 'Teenage Dirtbag' references on scarves and Doc Martens boots.

The rebellious clothing style is also contained within the elaborate silver jewelry and eye-catching dramatic graphics of a dagger-through-a-burning-heart. Without a doubt Martin Asbjørn has successfully captured the essence of teenage hood and his line will not only serve as a nostalgic trigger for adults, but also as an inspiration to those, entering the teen years.
