Color Contrasting Cardigans

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Orley Fall/Winter 2012 Line Has Bright Colors and Bold Patterns

— September 7, 2012 — Fashion
The Orley Fall/Winter 2012 collection contains a lot of knitwear that is just what the doctor ordered to keep you warm as the inevitable transition from summer to winter takes place. The New York brand's collection is inspired by 20th century art and the Canadian outdoors.

The variety of knitwear in the Orley Fall/Winter 2012 collection is impressive. The line includes cardigans, crew neck sweaters, scarves and beanies (in Canada we call them toques). Bright, contrasting colors are used in bold designs. These very graphic patterns are eye-catching, but not too over-the-top. The cable knit crew neck sweater is a more subdued design as opposed to the others because not everyone wants to wear a bright blue and orange cardigan.

The Orley Fall/Winter 2012 collection is currently available at Union Los Angeles.
