I’m browsing Old Navy and come across this print.
Nice approach. Different.

nice way to think outside the box!

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

Pretty cool! Looks like chain mail from the middle ages. I'm sure a lot of our heavy metal clients would love that!

I want to get it, but I don't ??? Maybe if I saw the whole shirt?

I made a mistake once; I thought I was wrong about something; I wasn't

Faux stitching to my eye. Could be enhanced with a slight puff UB and/or shadow plate to push it forward. The stich effects have always attracted me as to almost endless possibilities. Difficult to put in front of customers/art/sales without examples. Cost effective method to simulate
emb or applique. Tried to do it for the collegiate market but they wouldn't bite. It will take, given the right circumstances.
