What could possibly follow a summer bursting with bold trippy prints? The password is … tapestry. Autumn takes the psychedelic maximalism of last season and streamlines it into tighter, more ornate patterns with a touch more romance — and longer hemlines. Inspired by interior surfaces such as upholstery, rugs, and wallpaper, fall’s designs have an aristocratic and luxurious air. Look for damasks, botanicals, and kaleidoscopic motifs with a vintage-leaning palette. And while it may not be your go-to color, green is a key hue this season, be it shades of chartreuse, emerald, or Pantone’s fall fav, martini olive. That’s shaken, not stirred. W

Open Our Doors to Nourish More

The Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina at Wilmington is close to opening the nCino Hunger Solution Center at 1000 Greenfield Street. The new facility will provide the infrastructure and space to reach more of our neighbors facing food insecurity in the Cape Fear region and allow the Food Bank to operate additional programs to address hunger at its root causes. Along with the Greater Wilmington Business Journal, Sunrise Broadcasting, WECT, and WILMA Magazine,

our goal is to raise an additional $100,000 with your support, so we can open our doors and feed more friends and neighbors.
