JW Anderson unveils the Studs collection to celebrate Pride month. The London-based fashion imprint offers a capsule of ready-to-wear apparel and accessories -- all of which feature muscular torsos of faceless vintage models as the graphics.
The emblems detail tees, polo tops, and underpinnings right at the front with the head cropped right at the neckline. The poses open up their arms and are ready to embrace a welcoming energy that all contributes to the celebratory theme. It is notable that the brand's five-word slogan ready "feel free to say hi" is seen on the black hoodie and crewneck shirt in bright orange to offer a bright contrast. The accessories include tote bags, key rings, and baseball caps.
