Remember those Pattern Magic inspired shirts I made for my portfolio right before my interview with Nicolas? - Jesse, I think you have the magenta one - I was looking through a few Resort collections just now and I think Jason Wu was inspired by the same pattern exercise I was...


I do like them, even if the end result has the same "look, I'm gift-wrapped" effect mine did.

What is up with those books. I doubt that the japanese even know that they were printed but we americans (who can't even read them) have been over whelmed coast to coast.

yup, and then today at nicolas' one of our designers sent in a photocopied page from the first volume to use as reference for a jacket we're making. It makes me optimistic that fashion is turning towards more complicated, well-executed designs even if the inspiration is so transparently from the same place...
