Tromp L'oeil prints are making their way onto shoes, shirts, dresses, ipad cases and even interiors.  Agi & Sam's  Spring/Summer 2011 collection features shoes and men's wear pieces with very interesting prints like basket weave and tile.  Rachel Comey's light transluscent blouse boasts the print of a chunky cable-knit, creating a clever and humorous contrast.

Camo and Boessert Schorn

Background: Boessert Schorn.

Foreground: Shirt and pants, Urban Outfitters, Shoes by Matt Bernson

It all started with a trip to my favorite store in Portland, Una, where I discovered the amazing German label Boessert Schorn. The deconstructed camo patterns on their sweater wraps got me thinking about the current military trend. Although the look is full of solids, from a print perspective, there's a lot of cool camo variations to play with. Urban Outfitters have some interesting large scale, almost color-blocky prints and appliques, and there are loads of camo print shoes, from Keds, Toms, Matt Bernson, and others.
