Insight-Beautiful, Epic, Underwater


“Dopamine”, the Fall/Holiday 08 collection and campaign from Insight is a trippy, beautiful and perfectly weird feeling. It is fashion from start to finish. Blame women’s creative marketing director (mouthful), Jay Quirk. Or blame Jesse Faen. Underwater dinner parties, naked ladies and man-powered motorbikes. The clothes are dope. Too.
