We’re Gaga for Gingham
Get familiar with the phrase checkmate this summer because gingham is having a major moment in the spotlight. The squared print isn’t just showing up on a dainty summer dress – shades of red, pink, purple, blue and black are popping up on jackets, tops, headscarves, tees and cropped trousers. More uptown cool than country casual, this year’s grown-up gingham features jumbo checks and floral and lace appliqués. And don’t be afraid to mix and match the perfect-for-a-picnic print – clashing colors and textures emphasizes the summery cross-hatched pattern’s witty and playful quality. Square off in this season’s chicest print with our picks below.
