Pretty sure you guys have not forgotten about Cloakwork, the very much talented illustrator and graffiti artist. He has previously released his series of artwork in a shoe box and now he is back again with Volume 2! For those who have not heard of his shoe box collection series, it is a collection where he made use of empty shoe boxes by creating sneaker illustrations inside the boxes. The drawings are created using spray paint, acrylic and marker. Each shoe illustration can be found inside of its corresponding box. Fascinating, isn’t it?

OBSCR Tribute Collection 2nd Lookbook By Mandy Gioh.

The core of the second collection is to deliver both football and military inspired stories into one. They amplify and bring the essence of vintage yet stylish garments, creating an off and on-pitch identity for the athletes. The Tribute Collection is made to pay homage and respect for those who have taken street wear and football to where it is today.

OBSCR drops a second lookbook for their second collection entitled ‘Tribute Collection’ in collaboration with Mandy Gioh. The concept of the shoot is mainly to showcase the daily lifestyle of women in sportswear inspired fashion. The direction of being sleek, minimal and classy exerts an interpretation by making itself significant between the boundaries of casual and activewear. The need of incorporating an active creative movement is to deliver both function and style that inspire women to express their personality and emotion through the garment. Through the photos, she captures the fine details of the collection using mixed media collage techniques with film, digital and iPhone photography. Her perspective is to capture the beauty of the collection in the hustle and bustle in the city.

If you’re interested with OBSCR products you can check out on their official websitefacebook, and instagram for more.  Last but not least, don’t forget to follow Mandy Gioh on her instagram too.
