Earthen. Sumptuous. Our intrepid new collection brings home the colors, moods and textures of nomadic cultures. From the Atlas Mountains of Morocco to the Tibetan plateau and the prairies of the Great Plains, the spirit of the nomad is embodied in a pure palette of rich pigments. Rooted in Onyx, Carob, Denim and Cement, it’s a color story that draws from artisanal wares and traditional dress found amid these sparse locales. Contrasting black and ivory tones echo the carpets and shawls crafted by Berber tribes, deep, lush brown is a nod to the coveted baskets woven by the Zulu, sunwashed blues evoke fabrics soaked in dyes extracted from the centuries-old indigo plant and soft greys layer in the soothing, muted hues of ceremonial clay pottery. From the geometric Kuba cloth motifs to the nubby knotting and touches of sequins and shine, the patterns and textures in this collection together create a truly transporting experience.
