This Summer, Fashion is Breaking All the Rules

The choice is yours, but why choose when it can all be had at once?

Black and white. Oversized and shrunken. Maximalist and minimalist. What if we could conjoin these boundaries instead of breaking them? Compounding dualistic ideals allows for further creative expression when it comes to fashion. With looks including oversized sunglasses and a minimal top or exaggerated outerwear and little-to-no underwear, L'OFFICIEL exemplifies the artistry that can come with breaking the prescribed barriers of fashion and combining extremes.
