The BAPE clothing label released its ladies Fall/Winter collection. The pieces are much the same as its male-centered collections, utilizing similar baggy styles and statement-making graphic prints.
The brand extends the camouflage pattern that it's known for to a majority of the styles in this collection, offering its female consumers different earth-toned greens and royal purple and deep blue variations. The print is included on an array of pieces, from jackets and hoodies to skirts, dresses and accessories.
Also included in the ladies BAPE clothing collection are a series of printed leggings, joggers and jeans -- making the sought-after styles offered to men more accessible. The iconic BAPE shark emblazons a number of the pieces, while others opt for the brand name or its ape logo instead.
