Spotted on the catwalk by Anna Sui and Tommy Hilfiger, over on CHAPTER FRIDAY, on vintage Levi’s jackets and now at high street stores as Zara and H&M: piles of patches. Or as Beyoncé would say, If you like it then you should put a patch on it!
Inspired by early biker gangs, they make for a distinctive edge. This trend has old school written all over it. When your worn out denim jeans are starting to fade, reinforce them with some strategically placed iron-ons. Match with an oversized hairy, wool coat (or bomber) and you’re good to go.
The streets are covered in this trend lately, from iron-on NASA logo’s to tartan details – we’re curious to find out what kind of details you prefer. Let us know in the comments!
