The Wizzard Fall 2009 collection out of Japan is dedicated to English poet and painter William Blake; appropriately, it features rustic, romantic separates with a Western edge. There are Stetson-style cowboy hats and plaid shirts tempered by association with wool shorts and oversized tops.
What's perhaps even more exciting than the Wizzard Fall 2009 collection, however, are the stylized images released to promote the collection. With their weathered, blurry retouching, these promotional shots could have been old relics rather than the product of a contemporary studio shoot.
