After releasing a line of apparel in celebration of the anniversary of its 'Paradise Tokyo' flagship, the Japanese clothing label is back with a fresh series of Wacko Maria shirts.
While the former collection featured the devilish artwork of 'Neck Face,' the brand's more recent pieces stick to scenic imagery that has a clear vintage aesthetic. Each of the button-ups features a plethora of palm trees and a city skyline behind them. The color of the towering buildings changes depending on the shirt, as some are shaded a bright hue of blue while others contrast the rest with neon pink.
The palm trees on the Wacko Maria shirts are depicted more traditionally, however the single-toned fabric that the images are printed on give the whole scene a bit of a dystopian feel.
