Raf, Rei, and Rihanna Agree: Art School Prints Are Back for Fall

Perhaps it’s because we spend all day with our faces glued to phones and computer screens that things with a hand-done feel are particularly appealing. (You know it’s true when those fingertip doodles scrawled on Snapchat images feel like a special message from a friend.) Designers, it seems, are taking note, crafting scribbled prints and patterns that evoke an art class vibe. The trend takes many forms, from the tattoo-inspired graphics done by artist Joseph Ari Aloi for Rei Kawakubo’s Comme des Garçons Fall 2015 menswear show to the Stine Goya–designed dress Pernille Teisbaek wore at Copenhagen Fashion Week. 

And if you needed more proof that the trend has legs, look no further than Rihanna’s gams, which she hid beneath Raf Simons’s doodle-covered Fall lab coat. Rih and forward-thinking fashion: Two things that are just drawn together.
