Transitioning into warmer textures, the Vintage Leather palette evokes a nostalgic library feel. Rich shades of Chocolate Lab and Tortoise Shell elevate the Soft Luxe Track Suit from simple sportswear to a sophisticated lifestyle staple. These earthy browns also provide the foundation for the Laser Distressed Corduroy Jacket, where “burnt-in” paisley patterns create depth without the need for heavy prints.
Finally, the collection is anchored by the Heritage Sport story. A vintage Papyrus cream base contrasts with the deep, dried-red tones of Henna, capturing the spirit of archival athletics. This classic varsity combination defines the Sport Jersey, serving as a clean canvas for retro “Multiply Athletics” typography and crest badges.
For Autumn/Winter 2026, “Textured Varsity” redefines collegiate heritage by blending “Soft Luxe” comfort with utilitarian structure. The collection modernizes classic silhouettes through laser distressing and asymmetrical blocking, grounded by a rich, organic color narrative. Deep Woodlands palette, where cool, shadowed tones like Scarab and Deep Forest establish a sense of rugged utility.
This structured mood is perfectly embodied by the Asymmetrical Pocket Overshirt, using the dark teal and green contrast to highlight its functional, uniform-inspired panels.

Trend forecasting for 2026 indicates a ‘Joyful Outdoors’ movement—a reaction to digital fatigue where consumers seek connection with nature through a playful, optimistic lens. The brief required a graphic suite that combined retro ‘70s eco-activism typography with contemporary character illustration.
I developed the ‘Melt!flora’ concept as a cohesive placement print package.
Character Design: Illustrated a personified heart/flower character to drive emotional engagement and brand approachability.
Typography: Utilized soft, rounded sans-serif typefaces to reinforce the ‘friendly’ aesthetic, integrating the slogan ‘The hands work while the mind takes a vacation’ to align with the wellness-focused narrative. Color Separation: Designed specifically for screen printing everything in black and towel embroidery for everything coloured.
