BWGH Dip-dyed Sweater S/S '13

Dodgeball anyone?? No??

Anyway, BWGH (Brooklyn We Go Hard) has become one of our latest obsessions over here at DETAILS. Fortunately for us, the Paris-based label has recently release some shots from their Spring/Summer 2013 look book and we couldn’t be more excited about the collection. Maybe it’s because the model is leading the life we dream of – jaunting around Europe, driving luxe boats, and mentoring some sort of little league soccer program. Or, maybe its because some of these pieces are just plain gorgeous (see color-blocked, suede bomber). Either way, we’re loving it and think you should too. Head on over to their tumblr for more shots from the look book.
