Menswear – All Tied Up

Those of us who don’t get summers off should still get to have some fun at work! We loved these abstract designs in this blog post so we used a similar color story and found offbeat patterns that adds personality to the everyday tie!

To start your own collection click this storyboard!

Menswear – The Flowerman

Who says men can’t wear floral prints?

The Rolling Stones made it acceptable for men in the mid 60s and 70s to wear florals, in fact it became a fashion statement! We think its time to bring it back now, especially that 70’s style is rolling back around for the Spring season as a major trend!

Dainty pretty florals need not apply here… Instead we foresee a more embellished vintage feel of foulard floral motifs, intricate decorative foliage and stamped flowers on mens shirtings!

Add a twist to your menswear line by exploring these vintage florals!

Prints – The New Camo

We all love the military trend right now…..but what is army if not for its staple print, camouflage?

We’ve experimented with the camo print in non-traditional colorways as well as large scale layouts, for a new fresh take on this otherwise old school pattern!

Start designing using our camo inspired prints!

Wovens – Plaid and Stripe Play

We came across this great shot from the Sartorialist and we were instantly inspired by the experimental use of mixing a large neutral balanced plaid, against a bias striped tie!

We love that this look isn’t too over the top… It still has a classic appeal, but keeps the blazer style from looking too boring or traditional, especially with a little subtle color in the stripes!

Check out our inspired plaid & bias stripe combo board to download them.
