Fashion label Sundae School showcased its latest 'Chapter 3: (Weed Scholar)' collection for the Spring/Summer 2019 season at New York Fashion Week Men's. The New York and Seoul-based label drew inspiration from both weed culture and academia. There is also a spotlight that hits Asian countercultures and that shows through the premium apparel and accessories selection adorned with graphics and Korean heritage cut details. The third series explores the aforementioned juxtaposing themes of both cannabis and academia.
