Pattern Pulp

Patternity x Clarks

I’m a big fan of Patternity. Back in November, they published these pictures on instagram. I obviously got excited. Then, though, I had a bit of a conundrum- can I post this collaboration that they’re publicizing through one form of social media? I felt funny about it- like it was an invasion of privacy in some weird way, even though they were documenting spring production on their feed…so I waited. A week ago, both Clark and Patternity released photos of their spring partnership – and I have to say it’s one of the most playful and sophisticated pattern collaborations I’ve seen in a while. Bravo guys! To buy the dessert boot pattern, click here.

 

Street Shots: Patternizing Your Legs




Who’s not a fan of patterned tights?

In a similar obsession with Instagram, today’s feature merges both loves. Whenever I happen upon a new city, beyond the regular snapshots, business card pileup and note taking, I always try to buy a pair of tights.

A few favorites are from London (Bebaroque and Patternity), though this leopard argyle number from Beams in Tokyo is a fresh spin on what I’m used to seeing. The legs on the left belong to Kate Williams. She’s sporting Hansel from Basel– a spunky LA business that’s always got an interesting texture for sale.

Send me your patterned legs- we’ll start a pinboard together!

 

Repetition Elsewhere: A Modern Metropolis




Here’s a quick dash of pattern porn from Nikolaz Groll to jumpstart your afternoon. Patterninity‘s facebook and blog stream is a constant source of geometric inspiration and today’s photo is reminiscent of a tubular cityscape. It’s inspiring on a number of levels and reminds me of a modern metropolis.

 

Accessories: Patternity from Across the Pond




I stumbled upon these patterned gems in London last November while browsing the black and white selection at The Dark Room. They’re easily one of my favorite accessories and it’s exciting to see that the ladies behind this limited edition run have been busy working to expand their line.

Inspired by street shots, nature and contrasting geometry, Patternity‘s latest collection is equally exciting. Check out their blog for a beautiful inspiration reel as well.

Tracking Repetitive + Awesome.
