Error-Themed Baseball Caps

Vetements New Baseball Cap Features Embroidered Warning Messages

— June 24, 2019 — Fashion
Fashion label Vetements introduces its latest accessory design for the Fall/Winter 2019 season featuring embroidered details that recall warning messages. The piece is a baseball cap and it boasts an error theme for the season, which is also translated across a selection of clothing as well.

The warning messages are plastered across a cap that has a series of colorful patchwork, which also nods to the progressive online era. The cap boasts a black base informed through twill materials and it also features phrases that read "404 error," "request not found," and "Internal Server Problem." The dark base is contrasted with colors including green, pink, red, and green. There are also some designs that reference pop culture including Nintendo, Mastercard, and Coca-Cola. Vetements' own logo emblem is also showcased on the back at the velcro strap.
