New York based fashion label Death to Tennis re-defines classic menswear silhouettes with its new Fall/Winter 2018 series entitled, 'The Style War.' The unique collection draws inspiration from a Diana Vreeland quote that surrounds the idea of "originality." She goes on to explain that anyone who has style has that one thing in common, which is originality itself. The Style War is designed to be a rebuttal to the label's previous capsule.
This year, the entire line features pieces that boast busy floral patterns, non-traditional silhouettes and reworked tailoring, as opposed to last year's versatile staple pieces. Some standout pieces from The Style War line are the military silhouetted vests and bomber jackets, and the range of heavily decorated floral patterned pieces.
