Trend Tracking | Inspired by J.W. Anderson

In a previous post I highlighted the collaboration between J.W. Anderson and the landscape artist John Allen to create intarsia sweaters which are not only unique and beautiful but wearable as well.  Seems J.W inspired a new trend...

Scenic Landscape | J.W. Anderson S/S 2015

Textile artist John Allen was the inspiration for J. W Anderson's gorgeous Men's Spring/Summer 2015 jacquard landscape knits.  The designs combine a mix of different yarns in mohair, wool, silk, viscose, and nylon in complicated knitting structures to render the scenes realistically.  Anderson intends for these to have broad unisex appeal and I suspect you will be seeing the Allen/Anderson influence in stores and on the runway in the seasons to come.
