Color blocks

[Kimkhuu]

It's very cute, when it's done a bit "raw" in a "amateur-ish" kind of way, so I wouldn't be surprised if it hit easily hit the high street stores... It's very lovely, fresh and artsy.

Ah Mulletproof, monochrome means one colour only (including all the shades that go with this one colour).
So it's more like this:

Maybe you mean a trend for patches of solid colour.

I think may be colour blocks would be a better term?

 

[gius]

Yes^ haha
My version is so geekish

 

[MulletProof]

Have you heard of Cassette Playa? I think it fits this category...and it has been quite succesful during the last months.

I kind of like her stuff...though I'm not sure how wearable the pieces are...do they sell them in shops or do you have to order via Internet?

 

[susie_bubble]

^Pineal Eye in London stocks them but I don't know where else..... they may take orders direct.
