I got the chance to meet up with Jason Scarlotti from 2(X)ist at Magic this year. He walked me through what is going to be new for 2(X)its this year. They have, as you would expect, a lot planned. One of my favorite things I saw is the new swimwear. They have taken patterns and such and are making stripes out of them. The pair in particular is made out of Fish! It’s one of the more creative things I’ve seen in a long time. It’s definitely something outside of the box.
This is list of what is coming this year. I don’t have pics for everything yet but you can guarantee that when it all comes out we will have Style Brief or write up about it.
