The Rockwell by Parra 2012 Fall/Winter collection offers new editions of a wider scope of merchandise with [funky characters, vibrant colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kenny-scharf-and-axel) and tons of fun.

The collection is centered around the Dutch artist's [vivid pop art style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vitesse) and his humor. A signature illustration in this series is a blue bird who appears on [t-shirts, hats and sweatshirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wasted-youth-x-tappei) in a variety of predicaments. As well, other characters like personified fruits and half human/half animal characters carry on throughout the line-up. Fun pieces include the white tees with framed comic-like pictures. For instance, one version is a t-shirt with a pair of legs under water with the saying "the one that got away." The apparel and accessories are relaxed and meant to be taken with a grain of salt.

The Rockwell by Parra 2012 collection is bright, wacky and above all creative.
