I’ve always been influenced by color and texture from the time I was a boy and fell in love with home made quilts, quite common in the Southern portion of the United States where I grew up. As an adult, as I have traveled the world, I have remained inspired by color and texture. Years ago when I started my own design house, I was drawn to upholstery fabrics for similar reasons, color and texture, and this remains true today with wax prints.
Dutch Wax Prints also known as African wax prints are omnipresent and common materials for clothing in Africa, especially West Africa. They are industrially produced, colorful cotton cloths with batik printing. One feature of these materials is the lack of difference in the color intensity of front and back side. The wax fabric can be sorted into categories of quality due to the processes of manufacturing.
The producer, name of the product and registration number of the design is printed on the selvage, protecting the design and allowing reading the quality of the fabric.
The design of the wax print fabrics already has an influence on the international world of fashion and lifestyle. They are an inspirational source for designers and companies.
