Mix Master: Fall’s Fabric Blocking Trend

The Fall 2013 collections were in stitches as designers pieced together a clash of textures, colors and shapes into wearable works of art. Showcasing multi-patterned patchwork and fabric blocking creations, half-and-half fabric swatches like abstract leather panels on wool, silk sleeves on sumptuous suede and tufts of fur make mixed media dressing a game changer this season.
