nautical

It is a large umbrella term that encompasses all that is related to marine and naval life. It is easy to spot in terms of interpretations because of the obvious motifs, shapes and silhouettes
Some of them are:
Pea coats, double breasted jackets, shiny brass/gold buttons, (inspired by the captain of the ship's uniform) contrast piping


Sailor stripes, collars and pants


Rope/ cording, anchor motifs


the colours navy blue, white and red


Cable knit sweaters
