TEXTILE TRENDS
The Real Teal
Teal makes a comeback as textile designers rediscover the blue/green shade for geometric prints, ethnic patterns and pretty florals.
Black on Black
With black, gunmetal and silver embellishments on a black ground, textiles go dramatic with tone-on-tone patterns such as foil prints and burnout velvets.
Ochre
Shades of ochre—from khaki and gold to rich rusts and loamy browns—add warmth to florals, abstracts and ‘60s mod prints.
