DPM x Penfield: Make Love, Not War

Posted on May 16, 2008 Under Fashion

Camouflage means two things: potential military aggression or you’re going buck hunting. However, the new DPM Spring/Summer ’08 line from Penfield is neither. The New England outdoor apparel experts have collaborated with camouflage specialist Maharishi to create a design that accentuates its “natural roots and artistic influences,” instead of guns and ammo. At the heart of the collection is a pattern adapted from the 1950’s era “Belgian brushstroke.” Previously associated with the elite troop units, this particular pattern is replaced with feathers to depict the “lightness” of the Penfield brand. Odds are if you see someone walking down the street with feathery camouflage they’re probably ready to make love, not war.
