Bench have given us a sneak peak at their high summer Power and Glory collection and it is fricking awesome.
Just like its name this high summer collection oozes power and a touch of glory.
The ladies collection is inspired by the punk scene and epitomises a sexy bold attitude. New shapes, proportion and layering make a clear statement: confidence! Prints from the urban wilderness intertwined with geometric art combine to reveal a twisted yet refreshing personality. Moody, hand-drawn graphics, cheeky slogans and quirky animal prints use bold colours on a natural palette to express real attitude. Simple brand sign-offs ensure each piece is about how YOU style it! The mens collection is inspired by the great outdoors and native Americana. Its all about discovery and revelation! Geometric patterns straight from the catwalk, are given Bench’s imaginative handwriting, whilst hazy woodland scenes, hand drawn prints in vivid colours and a bold tribal influence inspired by Navajo textile design, show courage and effortless style. This range has an underlying hand-crafted quality for the wearer to portray with his own personal flair.
Here are a few highlights from the collection.
