Something Else

The original philosophy behind Something—"We're not out for mass dominance of the fashion scene, we just want to make cool shit"—rings loud and clear in the new spring-summer range. Acid floral prints, soft marbled yardages, and worn-out textures create a look that is at once tough and pretty, and the T-shirt prints—inspired by psychedelic imagery, record cover art, and the ethereal beauty of nature and animals—capture the array of Wood's influences. The addition of a swimwear line extends the look even further: The suits' strong shapes, sophisticated detailing, and signature prints emblematize the line's tough-pretty juxtaposition and are just right for our summer vibe.

The blend of street-chic with feminine touches is a look that is decidedly Wood's own. This summer, according to the designer, the Something girl is all about wearing "washed-out biker skinny pants with an acid floral-wash tee, and a sleeveless suit jacket over the top of [a] floral, one-piece lace-up swimsuit." Something else, entirely, and we like it.

For Aussie designer Natalie Wood, one is the magic number.
