Lately, we’ve been spotting increasingly more prints. From plaid to polka dots, the new trend is to fearlessly mix patterns from head to toe. The prints-on-prints trend is a game appreciated by all designers, distinguishing the true fashion enthusiasts from the ones who look like laundry day got the best of them. If the trend isn’t executed properly, it can result in a chaotic, confusing mess; in other words, an utter disaster.

Let’s start with the union of vivid colors and black & white. Black and White Given that it’s hard to go wrong with two neutral colors, the combination of black and white is certainly a trump card. Go wild with playful patterns, choosing contrasting colors and never going for ones that are too similar. No need to play it safe!

The possibilities are endless, from pairing a striped jersey with an animal print bag to a bright, geometric dress with dark, delicate jewelry.

One of the more difficult looks to pull off, combining multiple contrasting geometries requires attention to not only the shapes themselves, but also the colors and silhouette. As always, the colors must be balanced, while shapes need to find common elements in their qualities.
