Does This Signal the End of the Trellis Print?

For years the trellis print has reigned supreme in the world of design. And why not! It is simply a stunning pattern that has been used to enhance beautiful designs everywhere.



Beginning with the now iconic Kelly Wearstler's Imperial Trellis for Schumacher...


...to endless variations on the theme.


But now on clothing?

I was enjoying my birthday dinner at a lovely restaurant when I looked up to see trellis print has made its way onto clothing. (And yes, I grabbed my camera!) While I've seen ikat on several items of clothing, I had yet to see trellis gracing a garment.

So what do you think? When a print used widely in interior design becomes so popular it makes its way down the chain to fashion, is its expiration date nearing?
