Printed Matter: New Abstract Knits Have a Cosby Moment

printedsweaters1104a
Bill Cosby couldn't trump his daughter Denise (aka Lisa Bonet) for fashion sense, but those crazy Cosby sweaters sure did make their mark. And the spirit of them seems to be making a comeback, albeit a more stylish one. Lately, we've been spotting a number of artful printed knits—calling upon Rembrandt's landscapes, Pollock's abstract expressions, and Picasso's cubism, these sweaters aren't exactly your old-school suburban staple. Rachel Comey and Peter Jensen dream of greener pastures with their landscape-printed sweaters, while Tsumori Chisato's open-knit sweater and wool-jersey dress take us on a surreal trip that recalls the work of Dali and Hunter S. Thompson. A little crazy…but cool, too.
