Here are some of their recent mood boards of print + graphic inspirations for the F/W 2016-17 season.

Stenciled, soft flowers are accompanied by inky line work. This board represents a girl with a trendy, beautiful, avant-guard, and feminine style. Add aspirational typography over these delicate florals for a more flirtatious take on this blooming trend.

Our celestial goddess incorporates soft florals, lacy stars and graphic moons into her look. Wearing stars as necklaces and giving off this mysterious persona, this stellar lady adds sophistication to this fall trend. These astrological graphics may look familiar from seasons past but are making a comeback this year in a more feminine diffused light.

Continuing summers dreamcatcher graphics with a more bohemian attitude this girl is hip, edgy and all about the feathers. Mixing these free spirited motifs with other graphic trends of the season help to keep her in style and forever stuck in an indian summer.

With a touch of wanderlust, our southwest girl lives a nomadic lifestyle and is quick to express her self. Using colorful Navaho designs, tribal bird motifs, adventurous sayings, and quirky arrow graphics she is ready to get out into the world and explore!
