Tokyo-based clothing brand TaaKK unveiled its 2018 Spring/Summer collection, along with a [stylized lookbook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creative-class-uniform) that speaks to some of the inspiration that went into designer Takuya Morikawa's creations.

The lookbook has a purposefully jumbled aesthetic, which prompts the viewer to linger a little longer on each image in hopes of understanding them. The images are especially confusing given that the [models' faces are covered in apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapes-we-take) as well, with cloths, tees, colorful shirts and even stickers taking away their identity and turning them into eerie-looking mannequins.

Much of the apparel that's featured in the lookbook boasts [statement graphics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-future-is-not-set), which spell out things like "ENDLESS" down the lengths of sleeves and pant legs. In addition to the lookbook, TaaKK launched a short video that speaks to its story.
