Initially, we had the Silk Road and its history in mind, and that’s when the idea for the “INEZ” pattern began to take shape. Starting with inspiration from Asian porcelain, we made a watercolor sketch of the long cardigan in shades of porcelain blue. It calls to mind porcelain shards, with different patterns uniting to form a surface. The dress with the same name has a pattern formed instead by whole, unbroken graphic stripes.
