Chained Dream Collection Lookbook
We’re all taught to have dreams, to have goals, to be ambitious and to do whatever we want to. But in reality can all these really be fulfilled? What if one day you realised that your dreams are being chained down? Like an anchor holding down a ship with the weight of the chain suppressing your dreams?
In this drop, the designer’s message is being interpreted in a few extraordinary ways. For instance, the chained logo tee features a heat sensitive print on the back which changes colour with heat and then back to its original state. Could the heat be our dreams and the environment be the anchor weighing down on us?
We’ll leave all these to your imagination because after all we believe one’s mindset is the key to resolve this conflict.

FW 2019: "Worst Yet The Best Era"
“It was the best of times, it was the period of despair , it was the age of wisdom, it was the stage of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the moment of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.”
The collection is inspired by a quote from “A Tale of Two Cities” by Charles Dickens. We are indeed living in the the era thought to be impossible in the past. Technologies, peaceful nations, everything seems too good to be true.
But at the same time humans are shadowed behind these technologies so much and peaceful- ness is taken granted as privilege.
The look book was shot at a traditional Malaysian laundry store where a man takes care of one’s laundry chores. The reason of doing this is because we would like to highlight the traditional laundry store while everyone out there is using the high tech self service laundry.
Is technology really creating opportunities? Or is it creating darkness in our society?
The collection features a few notable pieces like the tie dyed denim jacket and holographic reflective parka. The collection will be available at TNTCO’s website ( http://www.tntco.co ) from November 11 2019, as well as all the stockists worldwide.
