At Luca Luca, the colors were a little richer, but the idea was just as worthy of Winslow Homer. And here’s a great styling trick to steal from the runway–pair your attention-getting watercolor print with a blank canvas, like white jeans.

At Cynthia Rowley, the prints were hand-dipped in watercolor, to make the models look like “a girl who ran away from home and got wet in the rain and the print of her dress is running.” Mission accomplished!

This dress from Ports 1961 looks like it finished drying mere minutes before hitting the runway, doesn’t it? If you’re not someone who loves to wear splashy colors, try a subtler take on this trend with a watercolor print in a range of neutral shades.

What do you girls think of this trend? Will you try out watercolor prints? Do you already have anything similar? Does this scream “DIY project” to you? Which watercolor look do you like best? Discuss!
