The new Blackmeans Spring/Summer 2012 collection features a range of clothing designs that recall the couture dawned by cyberpunk characters.
The jackets feature sleek leather with patches atop the shoulders, reminiscent of futuristic street armor. The black pants and shorts are particularly suggestive of sci-fi and tribal inspirations due to the combination of zippers and straps that adorn these bottoms.
'Blade Runner' by Ridley Scott takes place in 2019, and although the technology for flying cars and cloned humans may not be that far away, the sci-fi apparel has certainly already made its way into the modern fashion senses. This collection is ahead of its time, with sleek designs that will make any fashion-lover stand out.
