RAW EMOTIONS drops its latest collection designed for the Spring/Summer 2020 season and this time around, it draws inspiration from Hong Kong films. The graphics that detail the apparel boast a gloomy aesthetic as a celebration of the overarching theme.
The designs are influenced by vintage band tees and the images nod to scenes and posters of the 2000s and 90s film, which is a time recognized as the golden age of Hong Kong cinema. Some of the films that are celebrated in the new collection include God of Gamblers, Happy Together, Black Mask, Ballistic Kiss, Comrades: Almost a Love Story, and more. The capsule is rounded out with a re-launch of the Tibetan Tiger Rugs.
