Prints from the Archive



    ANTIQUED INTERIORS    


In womenswear, surfaces appear to have been sourced from the archive, characterized by interior-look patterns.
  • Antiqued aesthetics with aged upholstery effects are key 
  • Muted colorways tone vintage-look florals and wallpaper prints 
  • Touches of jewel shades or metallics add richness
