Recently I've been obsessing over that hawaiian/tropical print so when I was flicking through TANK magazine and I came across this shoot I immediately fell in love.
I love the styling by Pandora Lennard, and how she has toughened up the prints with punk accessories. The flowers and bright colours contrast perfectly with the hardness of the spikes and mesh. Hawaiian shirts often have negative connotations and I can't help picturing a fat, burnt tourist returning from holiday in an overly bright hawaiian shirt and one of those hats that safari guides wear. But this editorial shows us how to wear these beautiful prints while removing all their association with naff tourists.
Here's some pieces on the high street to get the look...
