Whether you’re trekking the wilds of Africa, or big game viewing on ESPN, the relaxed look and feel of natural fibers in soft earthy tones beckons. Like the tides, the look waxes and wanes from one fashion season to another, but its presence is a comforting constant. In recent years the look has morphed from animal prints to large scale botanicals with soft neutrals all the while following the pack. This season, the “Out of Africa” solids of soft off-whites and natural khakis rule the savannah and hold court over beasty and botany.

Fabrics include: Loves Philosophy, Linaceae, Tambaqui, Pommery, French Vanilla, Bamboo in beige, & Vibe.

Buttons include: Castaway, Nutz in 3 colors, Quake, Wild One, & Bento.
