Surreal Collage Compositions – Beth Hoeckel

By Patternbank On July 15, 2012 · In Inspiration

After visiting the recent Bread & Butter show in Berlin, the Patternbank team saw that photographic prints are still featuring strong for Spring/Summer 2013 graphics. Colourful, surreal prints are still a main focus for many brands for next summer. With this in mind we thought we’d share these imaginary photo collage prints from Beth Hoeckel. Mixing realist and surrealist Hoeckel’s work plays with the juxtaposition between foreground and background objects. Baltimore based Hoeckel is a collage artist and photographer who loves the control of real paper, ink and adhesive.

By Patternbank On July 10, 2012 · In Inspiration

Frank Sorbier used just two designs and stunning visual effects to narrate a medieval French fairytale on the runway at Paris last week. The Haute Couture Autumn/Winter 2012/2013 collection retold the 17th century story, Donkeyskin, a widowed king set on marrying his own daughter, who escapes his clutches by demanding a series of impossible gowns, the colour of the sky, moon or sun. “The collection is a bridge between the past, the present and what the future could be,” explained Franc, who had teamed up with software giant intel for the high-tech side of the project.

Givenchy – Resort Spring 2013 – Paisley Ethnics Clash Beautifully

By Patternbank On July 4, 2012 · In Print + Pattern

Riccardo Tisci’s Givenchy resort 2013 collection featured some beautiful silk paisley scarf prints, patchworked with geometric shapes in solid tones of scarlet, electric blue and black and white. The result was eye-popping and sophisticated at the same time. Riccardo was inspired by the idea of a “traveling nomadic woman.” “She’s a gypsy, really,” he said – and a very modern gypsy at that.
