The always-suggestive Richardson heads to Jamaica for its latest capsule collection, encompassing a variety of goods emblazoned with imagery sourced from SHADES, an exotic nightclub quartered in Ocho Rios. Described by the New York-based brand as the epicenter of “cutting-edge edge adult entertainment by some of Jamaica’s award winning, most beautiful and talented dancers,” SHADES lends key imagery to an assortment of layering pieces and accessories.

Familiar Jamaican flag colors (black, green, gold) appear across the goods, with plenty of stylized SHADES branding to go around. Alongside a silhouette of a woman and “THE ULTIMATE XXXPERIENCE” verbiage, a T-shirt lists out the specific events that SHADES hosts each day of the week. Richardson branding and logos accompany a sensuous photograph, except on a black hoodie which simply reads “JAMAICA.” A host of key chain accessories, pouches, slide sandals and even a towel round out the drop.

Shop the new capsule on Richardson’s website now.
