22 Gingham Fashions

From Tablecloth Kicks to Vintage Designer Frames

— July 1, 2011 — Fashion
While plaid patterns have certainly made a comeback in recent season, they are not to be confused with gingham fashions like these. There is a common misconception that plaid and gingham are the same patterns, where in reality, gingham patterns have only two colors -- one of which is typically white. Plaid patterns combine multiple colors and resemble farmer style, where as gingham fashions can be related to familiar tablecloth patterns.

These gingham fashions prove that gingham is ultra stylish and ready to take over in place of plaid fashions, which have grown slightly tiresome. Check out these gingham fashions and stay up to date on style this season!

Implications - Plaid patterns have made a splash on the fashion and design scene in recent seasons, but companies should consider implementing gingham patterns as a refreshing change and deviation from the over-saturated plaid fad.
