The groundhog better be right about an early spring because the Stussy Spring/Summer 2011 spread has me longing for summer. The beautiful black and white photo shoot portrays teens enjoying summer as the sun shines down on them. The spread also has a bit of a Californian vibe, with a dash of suburbia mixed with Spike Jonze's Arcade Fire video aesthetic.
The Stussy Spring/Summer 2011 collection features collared flannel-patterned shirts, polka dot/stripe designs as well as classic tees with the brand's logo imprinted on it.
