“10.Deep continues the theme of the proverbial “paradise” – originally kicked off with its Spring 2013 collection – by way of a new “Paradise Lost” lookbook for the Summer 2013 season. Bold and colorful prints and patterns once again reign supreme as the Brooklyn-based label highlights everything from lush florals to unique tribal motifs.
