Lessons in Geometry

Motivos gráficos - Gratacós

We say goodbye to the Winter season with a trend which links into Spring: geometric prints

Prints with a zig-zag, stripes, polka dots of all sizes, graphic blocks, two-colour mosaics, checks, squares…prints which create suggestive optical effects are on the way back, bringing a Sixties twist to the silhouettes of the new collections. In the main these are being presented in black and white, although there is also room for vibrant colours like blue, orange, green or red. Below we analyse three of the most popular graphic motifs of this Spring.

1. Stripes


Stripes are becoming Spring’s star print, ranging from fine to broad and in a multitude of colours mixed on one and the same garment. From the sober looks of suits with diplomatic stripes to the more summery outfits with multi-coloured prints.

2. Polka Dots


Polka dots are moving away from folk-lore inspirations and are acquiring a more artistic tone, yet without abandoning the aura of retro. Predominant here are black, white and red circles of totally arbitrary size. They range from the traditional look by Dolce & Gabbana through to the contemporary re-visiting offered by Céline. There are interpretations to suit all tastes.

3. Checked


Back to the fray comes tartan with an emphasis on red and the coquettish print Vicky in classical black and white. Apart from the checker-board classics one innovation is the wearing of rectangular prints with a blurred effect such as those seen on the cat-walks of Louis Vuitton or Alexander McQueen.
