If growing up you always wanted to be Ariel in the Little Mermaid then the Bimba & Lola Spring 2014 collection was designed with you in mind.
Mystical and surreal, the Bimba & Lola Spring 2014 collection is inspired by surrealist painter Maruja Mallo. The painter is one of the most popular visual artists of her movement -- her movement being the Spanish avant-garde movement.
Using Mallo's 1952 painting Mermaids as the focal influence for the Bimba & Lola Spring 2014 collection, the casual everyday pieces are made using a kaleidoscope of materials.
Featuring materials with shiny iridescent finishes, metallic leather, loose knits and stamped neoprene, you can really feel the 'under the sea' feel of the collection.
