Romance Was Born's 'Tripsy Gypsy' collection is captured in a colorful exclusive for Australian publication, Oyster Magazine. The label's looks are designed by Anna Plunkett and Luke Sales who's latest collection references their recent travels to India.

[Floral prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oasis-society), prismatic elements and kaleidoscopic graphics take over the collection of [statement tees and skirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025) that are showcased alongside a range of [vibrant streetwear ensembles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pyra-scenic-route). These urban looks consist of over-sized sweaters and cropped trousers that are as comfortable as they are eye-catching.

In addition to its vibrant graphics, the Romance Was Born "Tripsy Gypsy" collection also features cleverly conceived slogans like "ohm my god". Oyster's editorial exclusive with the brand is captured by photographer Justin Ridler and features styling by Mark Vassallo. Moreover, the shoot's conceptual graphics are the work of designer and visual artist Johnathan Zawada.
