Eley kishimoto : "Print the World"

Kirkby fabric have announced an exciting collaboration with "print the world" design studio Eley Kishimoto. Eley Kishimoto is a British Fashion and design company founded in 1992 by Mark Eley and Wakako Kishimoto.

They have produced lines for the likes of Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton, to name but a few. Channelling the 1970s this new collection, available through Kirkby fabrics, dabbles with lux textiles and materials such as textured chenilles and layered foil prints. It's a debut fabric collection from the design duo. 

Described as a 'demure' colour palette, the bold patterns keep the collection feeling fresh and offers a new alternative in the world of fabrics .
One of my favourites of the collection is the 'Zig Zag Birds' - a modern and unique take on a houndstooth check; tessellated zigzags almost form the silhouettes of flying birds. Available as both a fabric and wall covering.
