The collection consists of the following original illustrations:
"The term pinstripe is the translation of the English expression" chalk striped "which indicates a particular type of striped: on a usually dark background (especially black, gray or blue), very thin light vertical stripes are outlined, just like the lines drawn with chalk on a blackboard. "
In our variation of the pinstripe, the lines become fish bones that run endlessly.
“It is commonly called" Prince of Wales "in honor of King Edward VIII who loved to wear clothes in this fabric or tweed. It is a particular design of the wool fabrics of men's suits, characterized by the intersection of large and small paintings. The most frequent colors are black / gray and white, or other soft colors, with two dark and two light stripes alternating with four dark and four light, which together create a cross-sectional pattern of different sizes. "
School of sharks, barracudas and herrings in a geometric sea crossed by red peaks. Classic.
"Polka dots arranged regularly or with harmonious asymmetry, in a dense or rarefied way, can be printed, woven, or embroidered.
Around the mid-eighteenth century, when fashion changed by abandoning the rich and heavy brocade fabrics in favor of the use of lighter and plain fabrics, the polka dots appeared discreetly and intervened to give a minimalist and modern look. "
"POIS" like a beach pierced by umbrellas ... The sand, palm trees and the sea. Nothing more.
"It is said that the striped shirt, as an icon of the sailor, officially became an integral part of the navy uniform after in 1868 the Grand Prince and admiral of the navy Kostantin Nikolaevich Romanov received the crew of the frigate" General Admiral "at the palace and all sailors praised the chief's functionality and comfort. "
Lines that curve up to become sea waves and allow you to glimpse beneath the water surface.
"A fantasy that has a long history; it happens to find them on the wide dresses of the ladies and on the padded doublets of the noble lords of the '500. In XVIII century, the black and white stripes acquire a negative meaning, characterizing the uniform of the American prisoners; in this way, the escaped prisoner could not blend in with the crowd on the street. While, during the Napoleonic period, the uniform of the French navigators included a white shirt with twenty-one blue bands, symbolizing Napoleon's victories. "
Silhouette of fish chasing each other in a polychromatic flow.
"The fantasy" fish scale "has been used since ancient times in Asian peoples, as in many cases (if not all) it is the nature that inspires man, who observing the surrounding finds inspiration to change his livery.
It is found embroidered on silk and linen fabrics, the first traces of this fantasy date back to 500 AD. about"
"SHARKS!" is a tribute to Steven Spielberg's classic movie "the shark", [only the first, the sequels are *******.]
Set in a sea that incorporates the fantasies where the sun rise.
"The" wave "fantasy has always been used in all cultures, from the west to the east. It is found on fabrics and ceramics. The sea has always been a source of inspiration, for its simple perfection."
"Whales!" it's a still moment ... Watching the whales at sunset, where they meet to reproduce and begin their love dance.
