Reckless teenagers in love form the backbone of Salasai's spring/summer collection, Fluorescent Adolescence.
Inspired by classic 1950s juvenile delinquent films like Lost, Lonely
and Vicious, Rebel Without a Cause and The Wild One, the collection -
Salasai's eighth - focuses on subtle surface decoration, detailing and
texture such as knitted leather, denim mini polka dot's, draped sleeves,
holes in knitwear, cut out detailing and a hand-drawn roses with thorns
print; all a modern and sophisticated take on young rebellious romance.
Like the changes of real life adolescence, the collection signifies a
fresh direction for the label capturing simplicity of structure,
personality and clean colour. The brand's signature unassuming and
nonchalant aesthetic continues, with volume, draping and texture in
subtle shades of white, beige, black, and denim blue.
