Y Harness — Scandi Unicorns in Purple (Festival)
Y Harness — Scandi Unicorns in Purple (Festival)
Some prints want quiet; this one wants a stage. Scandi Unicorns on deep purple — every horse a different colour, cantering across the chest. The Y carries the procession on the archive's most delicate silhouette.
A multi-colour cotton print of unicorns in full procession across a deep purple ground (the Scandi Unicorns design from the Festival collection's commercial print sources, sourced via Cloth Control), every horse in a different shade — red, yellow, white, light blue, hot pink, green — each carrying a contrasting saddle in another colour. A fine star-flower micro-pattern fills the negative space behind them, lifting the field from blank to textured without competing. The Y silhouette holds the print openly across the chest, leaving the front uninterrupted in a way that lets the procession run continuously rather than cutting cleanly. Purple stitching anchors the silhouette without distracting from the print's colour story. The louder sibling of the Scandi Unicorns on white — same cantering procession, deeper ground, full primaries. Camp at full volume, considered at full craft.
