As WACKO MARIA prepares for the arrival of Summer 2023, its latest collection remains faithful to its distinctive penchant for vintage aesthetics and an evocative '80s horror-inspired inspiration. In this iteration, the collection draws inspiration from the horror comedy film released in 1988, titled "Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers."
The assortment prominently features three variations of Hawaiian shirts and shorts sets, each adorned with captivating visuals derived from the movie's iconic hooker and chainsaw-themed posters and an all-over print showcasing the Hollywood sign. Complementing these distinctive ensembles, the collection includes a range of t-shirts available in both long-sleeve and short-sleeve options. Notably, the t-shirts are offered in contrasting black and white colorways, effectively accentuating the vibrant prints.
The WACKO MARIA x Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers collection is now accessible on the brand's website.
