TREND REPORT: THE FINE PRINT

Fight Seasonal Affect Disorder with our favorite current trend: Prints. That's right. You heard us. Forget about sludging through dark nights swathed in some mud colored palette. Dismal wear is being left in the cold in favor of geometric block prints in bold gem tone colors. But these aren't your granny's prints. The prints seen swashbuckling down the runways for Winter/Resort have been updated with futuristic hyper-construction & razor-shap pleating, giving us a taste of what's to blossom come Spring.
