# Citrus Heritage Collection Editorials The Vans Streetwear Collection Boasts Women's Silhouettes By Kalin Ned | Published 2018-02-27 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-streetwear References: [highsnobiety](https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/vans-design-assembly-collection-spring-2018/#slide-5) & [vans](https://www.vans.ca/) In a dreamily superimposed and hazily blurred photoshoot, photographer Daniel Regan exhibits the [Vans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-skool-36-souvenir) streetwear collection for women. Launching right after the [SpongeBob](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crocs-squidward) revival sneakers, the 'Design Assembly' 2018 capsule is informed by the company's heritage pieces. From casual tees and backpacks that boast the legendary stamp logo 'Off The Wall' to oversized designs with 90s-inspired elements and skate culture-celebrating silhouettes, the collection is created with a contemporary influence. Not only does the Vans streetwear collection for women confront the misguided notion that elegance is contained within form-fitting designs and floral patterns, but it also liberates the female presence within skate culture. The Design Assembly capsule highlights embroidered skateboard graphics, vintage 'Off The Wall' branding and well-fitting tomboy apparel with uplifting and bold orange hits.
