Tyler, the Creator is known for his offbeat fashion choices that imbue his playful demeanor into the clothes he wears -- which is something that's seen in the rapper's new Golf Wang lookbook for Fall/Winter 2016 as well.
The collection follows up his first ever runway show in the summer at MADE LA and makes use of much of the same themes in terms of color and pattern choices -- which are iconic to the rapper's brand. The new Golf Wang offerings take advantage of the change in season as well however, making sure to include red and green flannel ensembles and extravagant fur jackets in the mix.
Tyler, the Creator also plays on adidas' logo, swapping out its brand name for his own. Animal prints are often paired with neon accents in the lookbook, which works well with the highly saturated imagery and gives it a bit of retro feel.
