The new collection aims to celebrate this year's Chinese zodiac sign, the tiger, by highlighting the animal's unique symbolic associations with bravery and power. Appropriately, the capsule consists of a range of looks marked with a blue and white tiger stripe pattern. These include Type II Trucker jackets for men and women, matching 551z cropped jeans, and a high-waisted, mid-length skirt for women. “We wanted to create something that was culturally relevant to Chinese culture, being able to do something around Chinese New Year, we delved into looking at what the year meant, said Founder and Creative Director of CLOT, Edison Chen.
