Prints – Mixed Media

We are loving the trend of mixing unexpected prints. If you are designing a collection and have your color palette set…  then mix up the patterns; pair oversize  florals with bright gingham checks or bold graphic geometrics! Check out our mixed  collection with patterns from  EzTextiles.com then start building one yourself!

Check out some great mixed prints from our board!

Inspiration – Abstract En Vogue

We’re feeling inspired by Mexican mixed media artist Prince Lauder’s fashion inspired illustrations. His creative technique infuses a variety of textures and abstract details. This pulled us into searching our abstract prints library! Check out our colorful collection with a definate pop art influence and start building your own.

Prints – Tutti Frutti

Its all about fruits!

A major trend for Spring/Summer 2011 is a strong focus on all kinds of fruits, from apples to lemons even cherries! This kitschy conversational has made quite a buzz amongst editors, stylists and bloggers whom have expressed a liking to the trend. Find fruits in magazine shoots, trend boards- even American Vogues’ Anna Wintour was spotted wearing an all too familiar banana print!

We too love this ‘tutti frutti’ trend! Check out our concept board below using prints from our very own royalty-free Vintage Library!

Prints – Tropicalia

Summer is right around the corner, and we were feeling tropical after being inspired by this post from the popular DIY blog, P.S. I made this.

It’s the perfect time to compose a mood board like this since sun kissed oranges, and reds are trending hard this season. Think resort, tiki bars, and remote islands like Tahiti and Fiji. Artist Paul Gaugin was also strongly influenced by the South Pacific and its colorful flora and fauna. We chose to focus on this theme and introduced a bold vintage feel!

Get inspired! We started this Resort collection for you!

Prints- Maxed Out

Maxi skirts are a must-have item for Spring and we are excited that there are some booming trends in prints associated with it!

Here are the most popular so far- Over-sized vintage florals for the daring, mini florals for feminine appeal, and stripes for the casual. The elongated silhouette allows for great allover patterns, so theres room to play!

Check out these and more maxi skirt patterns from our collection!
