"Meet the Gang"

Brennan & Burch Spring/Summer 2008 collection

"Meet the Gang" is inspired by fantastical children's book "Where the Wild Things Are" combined with Stephen King's "The Talisman". A child is dreaming and takes a journey to the faraway lands encountering cute yet fearsome-looking monsters. The faraway lands lies in the imagination, is the child sleeping or are they really experiencing this mystical place?

The prints link together a story of this land where creatures live together harmoniously. We see a continuum of previous illustrations transporting back old acquaintances who bring along more of their friends. Prints include Land of Yeti, Butterfly Skull Melt, Meet the Gang, Googly eye drops, Day Out, and Monster Sheriff.

For Spring/Summer 2008 Brennan & Burch's colour palette includes emerald green, sunshine yellow, crisp white, buttery cream, soft pink, jet black, shimmery gold and bright blue.

Shapes for B&B ladies are one shoulder vests, sack dresses/tops with triangular printed inserts, long-line boxing shorts, playsuits, backless bow-tops and capsleeve body conscious dresses/tops with keyhole opening and curved inserts.

Men's shapes are raglan t-shirts, racerback vests, and lightweight summer sweats and hoodies with cut-off sleeves. Accessories are unisex butterfly skull belts in primary colours and natural shopping bags with super duper prints.
