Traverse the curious and curiouser wonderland of JW Anderson’s mind and you’ll spot pigeon-shaped clutch bags, fishes swimming across mini dresses and apples swinging from the seams of T-shirts, much like the Bad Apple tank top. Whipped up in planet-friendly organic cotton and shaped with dropped armholes, this offbeat ensemble is printed with bunches of the half-bitten fruit, framed in the label’s twisting lettering. Well, this style is certainly the apple of our eye.
