Decorator prints migrate to dresses and leisure wear, with Baroque stripes and chintz-inspired motifs appearing on jerseys and Caprolan nylon fabrics. Designer Jack Lenor Larsen leads the trend, with Gerald Pierce for Boul’ Midh shaping many pieces, including a mandarin-neck tunic and matching wide leg pants for versatile day and evening wear.
