Designers say: Watch your back

There may soon be something featured on it. Backs got their turn in the spotlight during Saint Louis Fashion Week and we’re not just talking rear ends. The back is the next great fashion frontier to conquer and the jury is still out wi
The results ranged from gaudy to sporty but most every look was worth the double take. These two back views come from Silver Dagger (left) and Apple Bottoms’ Red Label line (right). For the fashion set that wants to be noticed coming and going.
U.C. Me clothing used back space to show off its logo. Humanity for All (below) used the back as an extension of the original art work used to embellish their shirts designed to educate people about social justice personalities and causes. Wrath Arcane used backs to show off some fancy stitching details and, well, Apple Bottoms kind of celebrates the rear view, so that really wasn’t a surprise.
