Hemingway Inspires Woolrich Woolen Mills


Mark McNairy is a designer that can take a played out theme and turn it into something so interesting and so cool, you'll think you stumbled upon the future. The old school American theme of collections have been done so many times before, but Mr. McNairy's playful interoperation of pairing Americana with African jungle, circa Hemingway's days on safari. The classic American designs paired with tribal prints and safari jackets contribute to an overall theme of suburban jungle. The outwear of this collection is really enticing, with a pullover that I definitely need (pictured below), and a couple of khaki and green jackets that will come in handy when I'm on safari, or walking down Michigan Ave. This Woolrich Woolen Mills Collection does the modest color palette well, with pops of paired down colors in solids or lively prints. It's no surprise that I'm into this collection, it's simple in its designs and colors, but always has a pop of personality.
