ith the arrival of Summer in the Southern Hemisphere, Hering brought some news to heat up the season even more. The main trends that the brand offers are various t-shirt models, shirts, colorful pants, printed blouses and pieces with lace and laise details. The women’s collection was inspired by two themes: Antilles and Flowers Market. The first is a tribute to the Netherlands Antilles, in the Caribbean. The prints date back to the stone streets and colorful houses of the country. The color palette is inspired by the Caribbean climate, which is warm and humid. In this way, Hering invests in white and in shades of blue, green, pink and orange. Among the pieces, the highlight is for flare striped pants and printed shorts.
