You’ve always been ahead of the game.
Before stonewash, you bleached your Levi’s at home. When the masses embraced grunge, you were already knee-high-boot deep into ghetto fab. You even midcentury modified before Herman Miller was ubiquitous.
Back then you had time to take to the streets for inspiration. These days you’re lucky if you steal a few to stroll the virtual highway.
When you do, head straight for shopscadonline.com, the new online version of the Savannah College of Art and Design’s retail gallery for students and faculty. Window-shop the original designs of soon-to-be discovered talents like Maureen Walsh (reversible screen-printed skirts) and Amy Pilkington (handcrafted 18-karat hairpins).
In the fine arts section, standouts include Meryl Truett’s photographs, which capture the vanishing vernacular of Southern imagery, and Ivy Maddix’s vintage charm bracelets fashioned from miniature toy animals. You’ll want to collect them all.
Just don’t get ahead of yourself.
