It looks like the New Rave movement is making a big comeback thanks to Carrie Mundane, designer of the UK-based fashion label, Cassette Playa. Mundane calls her style ‘aceed sartorialism’, and with a collection using bright neon graphics, it’s hard to disagree with her. Using day-glo colors and pixilated graphics, her designs make you feel like you are living in a computer game. Her latest collection includes heat sensitive sweatshirts and shorts that change color when the temperature rises. I’m also a fan of the oversized silk digital printed tops. They’re light and bright, and perfect for spring. The unappropriately named Mundane has worked as a stylist for bands such as the Klaxons and M.I.A.

Extortionately overpriced garbage. Keep it real, don’t take the piss.

Doesn’t seem all that original to anyone who remembers the 80′s. And heat sensitive sweatshirts. That’s a direct ripoff of hypercolor. It’s a shame that designers can’t think of anything new and have to use past styles.
