More on the 2022 Spring Collection
The spring 2022 collection, from Global to Local, features new expressive prints—created by illustrator Emily Taylor, in collaboration with Kim Slicklein—with a story and significance behind each one. The prints are grounded with the Macrae Skye Global Stamp print, an ensemble of custom made stamps representing each of the countries that Kim and her family have lived in: the Netherlands, England, Scotland, the United States, and South Africa. Equally important are the hand drawn illustrations paying homage to the Hamptons, featuring designs of iconic Hamptons locations, including Sag Harbor, East Hampton, Montauk, Napeague, and of course, the birthplace of the brand, Amagansett. The dazzling designs highlight the natural beauty and feature specific landmarks associated with each hamlet. Hamptons prints will also be available on tees made for play, and cheery tote bags. The line includes their best-selling pajamas, as well as dresses, skirts, jumpsuits, joggers, shorts, tees, and the newest addition—kid’s bathing suits. From beach to boat, to backyard (and back again!), from family photos to a best friend’s clambake, Macrae Skye’s newest collection is versatile, comfortable to wear, and makes the most of every delightful moment.
Many of the products will be showcased in supremely unique and equally exquisite giant Dutch Gable Houses which were designed as multifunctional storage. The cabinets, which are made in Amsterdam—part art and part function—can be used to store clothes, toys, books, office supplies, kitchenware, tableware—or anything imaginable! Placed side-by-side, the Dutch Gable Houses replicate the canal houses in Amsterdam. The artful units come in 8 standard colors, or can be made to order.
Additionally, Macrae Skye’s spring collection will also include a premium quality stationery line featuring the stunning Stamp collection and Hamptons prints. Macrae Skye stationery is responsibly created from FSC certified paper and will be packaged with twine.
