Fashion designers Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai of Vena Cava have released a 'Viva Vena' video to promote their new collection. The [artsy film clip](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-tiger) is fresh and quirky with a bit of a [contemporary surrealist style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by).

A series of seemingly random objects and occurrences make up the entertaining black-and-white 'Viva Vena' video. Without featuring much [actual fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity), it's still a fun piece to watch. Check out the gallery for a peak at Vena Cava's unique styles.
