Maison Kitsuné, a French fashion brand that was first conceived back in 2002, recently released an editorial that promotes the many different styles that are available as a part of its pre-Fall 2017 collection.
It's reported that many of the pieces were inspired by American superheroes, however the way in which this is executed is rather abstract -- with accents like New York's iconic skyline said to channel them. All of the garments from the Maison Kitsuné collection are modeled on a single female muse, who poses in front of vintage-style pop art backgrounds. This gives the images a unique appearance that helps the apparel to standout, while also helping to maintain a minimalist aesthetic.
Ensembles are diverse, as frilly dresses and shirts, masculine polka-dot suits and simplistic athletic wear are all included -- making for an expansive collection that has broad appeal.
