JOHN TARGON’S FALL RISK TO DROP SECOND COLLECTION

Fall Risk Volume 2
by Stephen Garner

Fall Risk, the genderless lifestyle brand founded by designer John Targon, will release its second collection tomorrow, Wednesday, June 26th.

Dubbed “Volume 2 Call. Collect.”, the new drop features a range of seven white t-shirts (three long-sleeved shirts retailing for $145 and four short-sleeved shirts retailing for $125) produced in Los Angeles in limited quantities of 50 items per style.  The t-shirts are graphic, happy, colorful and, according to Targon, they are “vintage reimagined”. They were inspired by nostalgic moments in Targon’s childhood which he reworked in a playful way for today.

“I believe that the perfect white tee is missing and doesn’t need to be just plain white,” said Targon. “With Volume 2, I wanted to introduce a new staple with the Fall Risk twist on a plain tee which can be paired with anything or nothing. I’ve also included statement t-shirts so there is something for everyone. And, summer whites are perfect for a wet T-shirt contest!”
