Backward Thinking

Designers take a look back at what makes them great

 

Backward thought might not always a bad thing. In this case, the fashion industry is looking back to their roots- each brand tapping into their heritage and playing up what they’re best at. They’re taking a cue from the first designs that put them on the map- Dolce & Gabbana’s precise tailoring, Missoni’s intricate knits and Cavalli’s elaborate prints. For Natori, it’s complex embroidery and attention to detail. And after years of varying trends, we love how new an old look can feel.
