Tagged by Life of a Jersey Girl

The fashion magazines are predicting that prints will be hot for summer…large florals, bold brush strokes, graphic designs.

Lets talk prints!

Q. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PRINT IN YOUR INVENTORY?

Because Im a child of the 60s and in honor of Albert Hofmann

this Mr. Dino is one of the many psychedelic prints I have in my collection



Im also fond of this Stan Hicks Hawaiian shirt



And this oriental-ish hippie dress with contrast lime bell sleeves



Q. WHAT IS YOUR DEFINITION OF NOVELTY PRINT?

For me a novelty print is one that is fun, whimsical, the print stands out on its own with not much other background 'noise'

like this unusual Shaheen seahorse pinafore MAXI dress also in my inventory





Q. MOST AMAZING NOVELTY PRINT YOU’VE EVER SEEN?

One of the most fun print dresses I ever sold was this WILD CHILD 60's Tori Richard Maxi Dress. Note how the flowers break off as they seem to float up to the top



Leave it to Tori Richard to design such an outstanding pop effect of the era.

Q. SIZE MATTERS….WHEN WEARING PRINTS, DO YOU PREFER BIG OR SMALL?

Um, Medium :)

Q. Personal Choice, COLOR OR BLACK AND WHITE?

I love black and white but do wear color on occasion.

Q. WHAT DESIGNER DOES YOUR FAVORITE PRINTS?

My holy grail, Pucci

Always great vintage from eVintage members.
