Interior Decorating

So, it hasn’t even been a week yet and already we have trends for textiles and colors, but what about prints? Prints have had huge trends these past few years (especially when it comes to mixing them), so of course I’ve been keeping an eye out for which direction they’re headed in now. It seems to be – and I may be making up a fashion term here, but I’m going to go with it – wallpaper prints. You know the kind. It’s a small, repetitive pattern, like what you’d find in upholstery fabric or covering your walls. Maybe I should just let the pictures do the talking from three of my favorite collections to showcase it so far:

Jill Stuart:

Chris Benz (who showed another stunning collection and will probably have his own post in the near future):

Derek Lam:

Now all we need is a decade (I guess I’m feeling a general sense of 40s sophistication, but no obvious references to silhouettes or styles) and a geographical location (but if we’re trusting Jason Wu and Zac Posen, that seems to be the Far East) to complete our bullet points. It’s definitely an exciting start…
