Motifs from ancient Greece dominate the Clover Canyon Pre-Fall 2014 collection, paying tribute to classical philosophers, mythological gods, architecture and astronomy.
The digital prints are collaged together in dynamic compositions on jackets, dresses, shorts, skirts and tops. The updated Greek graphics in combination with some more modern patterns like stripes and Ben-Day dots is refreshing and vibrant, not to mention the blue sky and water scenery of Greece seems to makes the breezy dresses even more appropriate for the warmer weather.
Some of the silhouettes even resemble Greek pottery itself, like the asymmetrical one-shoulder dress, or the use of red and black coloring which references red-figure and black-figure pottery techniques. Despite the singular theme, there’s plenty to look at in this Clover Canyon collection.
