British Artist Lakwena Brings Her Joyful Aesthetic To TEX Fastener Latest Kids Collection

Resolutely playful and positive in spirit, the collection’s key looks consist of streetwise wardrobe favourites energized with brilliantly bold colour, print and text. The optimistic mood is reflected in styling that prioritizes self-expression and heroes shared values of love and friendship expressed in the printed slogans. Phrases that read “Small but mighty” and “A lovely day” repeat in rainbow-bright hues across T-shirts and hoodies, either incorporated into squiggles and swirls or heroed as graphic texts printed across chests and running down arms. Then there’s the co-ordinating tank and leggings and the all-over print dress with a flared skater hem, infused with positivity. In accessories, a tote bag, back pack and over-the-shoulder pouch bag have universal appeal, covered all over with striking typography, while sneakers in happy patterns add a touch of fun to even the plainest of outfits.
