Text prints are still favorite among many and it’s been a popular design detail for seasons. Quotes, single-word prints or worldly city names lead the list. Female empowerment, romantic French sentences or a simple provoking word all belong in the text print category. And of course, the word love is an all-time favorite - also often seen in the French translation amour.

Graphic prints have arty appeal that just makes you keep coming back to them - no matter if it concerns the organic-shaped or geometric type. Bright colors are often teamed with neutrals, while tonal prints create harmony. Graphic prints are often applied all-over on a garment; opt for an all-out graphic look by mixing prints, or create a balanced look by teaming graphics in tonal palettes.

A floral print evokes romance - and this counts for all forms: from enlarged designs to aquarelle and an 1-on-1 photo print. Flowers equal femininity and even the type of flower you choose tells something about your classic, modern or minimal dress style. 

Want to express your love for a brand? Share it with the world by wearing a logo printed piece. You’ll find them in embroidered, printed or all-over versions. Some brands opt for a subtle design on the chest while others like attracting more attention by showcasing their logo in a bright contrasting color, depending on the brand’s design philosophy.

The Breton stripe is the favorite stripe of them all. This classic is often found in a horizontal two-tone design; black and white, or navy and white. Variations on stripes are found in multitude; think varying thicknesses of stripes, alternative colors or a modern vertical stripe.

A print that is still conquering hearts is the animal print, with the infamous leopard print as the leader - in both a classic palette of browns, or a more modern version in alternative colors. Enlarging or minimizing the size of the print leads to different styles for a more modern approach. To create more harmony, style animal prints garment and accessories in a tonal combination.

The group of abstract prints contains a wide range of prints that cannot be categorized in one of the more recognized prints mentioned before. They often express a more arty feel; like tie-dye prints, aquarelle-inspired patterns or blocks in contrasting colors, also known as color blocking.
