In what looks like a new age version of the classic fairytale Rapunzel, designer Una Hlin Kristjansdottir presents the [debut collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens) from her Royal Extreme clothing line.

And extreme it is, with its [super high-collared coats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsaks-lucia), pants with plaits running down the legs, and [pom pom-covered shawls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/i-wool-survive). The model's long tangled locks add an even more dramatic effect to the pictures.

Although this is the first offering from Kristjansdottir's Royal Extreme clothing line, with such creativity and gutsiness on display, I'm sure it won't be her last.
