Mix Your Prints

Combining colors, scale, and patterns in a way that looks dynamic takes practice, but there are some basic tricks to getting it right. You can wear two prints that repeat the same colors or mix a large-scale pattern with a smaller one.

Stitch of History: Patches

Seventies attire is definitely seeing a resurgence on runways, but the look was rooted in pieces much more shabby than chic. Hippies donned military surplus attire, second-hand frocks, and started repairing and embellishing their looks with clothing patches. Printed or embroidered, cheeky or satirical, their radical patches looked cool and showed off icons of the counterculture movement.

In the 80s, street punks wore cloth patches of their favorite bands and mantras across shoulder or back patches. Their patches were roughly stitched or safety pinned onto to worn-in leather jackets and ripped denim vests, and though they had a new look, patches fulfilled the same role in counterculture fashion — a badge of identity, personality, and even solidarity.

Patches have spanned multiple wars and social causes, bringing a louder voice to people’s personal fashion. But they don’t no longer need a special cause to be relevant. From offbeat vintage finds to mainstream runways, they’re always being revived, adapted, and repurposed.

Stich of History: Sweater Vests

In the 1950s, sweater vests were the go-to layering item for those wanting to achieve the preppy aesthetic, with many men (and not so many women) taking part in the trend. Despite the shaky start, however, the sweater vest came to be a hugely popular accessory by the 1970s, with both genders getting in on the fun. But by the 90s, the sweater vest lost its edge.

The modern obsession with sweater vests unsurprisingly coincides with a greater demand for genderless fashion and newly dubbed ‘grandpa-chic’. Similarly, leading fashion houses and designers are jumping on the bandwagon with their own, revamped take on the vest.
