Patch Me if You Can

Mending and patching things up has been a necessity for centuries, but it has also morphed into a fashion statement in the last few decades.

This week’s parade celebrates making-do-and-mending patches, as well as patchwork fabric and leather fashions, and prints that look like patchwork—all vintage, of course!
