Cool Hunting
Every item in P.A.M.'s new Spring/Summer collection (titled "Dreams Freud Dreamed") has character, creative design and boasts quality construction. T-shirts, sweatshirts and jackets incorporate subtle stitching details, at times creating unique triangular shapes and textures. The graphics used are eye-catching but not loud and the jewelry is imaginative and striking. Creative cuts and details make P.A.M. a label to look out for this summer.
The Moonshake Jacket, a combination windbreaker and hooded sweatshirt, is a two-in-one reversible jacket. A light cotton sweatshirt is stitched and incorporated with a light-weight nylon jacket creating a white outer shell with grey lining (pictured below right, click on image for detail.) Isis, a T-shirt constructed from extra lightweight cotton, is perfect for the hottest summer days. Plain and simple on the front, the back features a patchwork of pyramids sewn together, hence the name. (Pictured below left, click on image for detail.)
A key item from the collection is the Fang Necklace, which is made of silver that's oxidized to give off a hint of black (above). It's a good compliment for accessorizing with the simplest of outfits.
Available for purchase online, check out the entire collection at Firmament
