From wonder to rebellion, Bang Pineda shows streetwear as more than clothing

- JANE KINGSU-CHENG

It’s very beautiful and also easy to put up something, like a blank canvas you can create a lot on it.”

A focused palette, textile choices, and distinct construction details make up the collection’s three stages of self-discovery—beginning with openness, moving through exploration, and ending with a clear, grounded sense of direction and identity.
