The first in an ongoing series of collections with PP draws attention to urban and man-made shapes and structures.

As with all projects undertaken by PATTERNITY this is underpinned by the aim to encourage a heightened observation of the (often unnoticed) patterns that surround us everywhere we go. This is in line with the organisation’s core philosophy that:nn‘A shared awareness of pattern has the power to positively engage us with our environment and each other’nnThese three styles will be available from Selfridges, Fenwicks, Topshop, River Island, Urban Outfitters, ASOS, Mytights.com, Bentalls, and in the US at Bloomingdales, Lord & Taylor, Macys, Nordstrom, Urban Outfitters, La Maison Simons.
