Yung Du has created a line of sweaters that are oversized, quirky and unconventional.
The design line by Yung Du features giant strawberry and watermelon prints as well as fruit hats. The looks also include giant faces and animals. The designs certainly aren’t made for wallflowers, but are perfect for those who like strong prints. At the very least, they look super comfortable and would make for great conversation (particularly the berry hats).
