Flower Power - What's "In" for Spring and Summer
That simple question can be answered easily. Floral prints! Sound familiar? It should, because the natural beauty of flowers has always been a mainstay in fashion and art since time began. People still marvel at Van Gogh’s “Sunflowers” or the impressionistic flora and fauna of Renoir. So is it any wonder that the fabrics created to emulate the varieties and colorations of posies are revisited again and again in the world of fashion design? From the cotton floral calico prints of the pioneer women, to the avant garde pop abstractions of the '60’s, the flower has ultimate staying power.
