Using drawn-on black geometrical shapes to outline the models, the Sass & Bide Playman Resort12 lookbook is like an electric fashion comic book or tattoo portfolio.

The Australian designers Jane Clarke and Heidi Middleton outdid themselves with this collection. The clothing items in the lookbook are contemporary tribal pieces mixed with a modern flare. [Maxi dresses and full body jumpsuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/resort-wear-collection) are decorated with a collage of pattern in bright, attractive colors like the cover of a 90s music album. The added [black illustrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixelated) create vitality in the lookbook by making some items look like designer sketches or attaching extra doodles to the attractively loud prints.

The Sass & Bide Playman Resort12 pieces are ready-to-wear garments that require little to no accessorizing.
