Weave in Wanderlust

Johnson’s pieces are inspired by the many places she visits. The designer was drawn to the mountain village Ourika, where she discovered all new combinations of colors from the Moroccan buildings, textures from Islamic colleges and even the patterns on rugs hanging on the streets. Traveling to Okinawa exposed her to Japanese art books filled with print techniques and silk kimono weaving. Explore Ulla Johnson’s collections to teleport yourself to different destinations.

Drop the Dress Code

Johnson encourages everyone to stray away from any universal dress code. Throw out the concept that chic = black or that you can only wear that gown to a formal occasion. Play around with your clothes, pick out even bigger, louder floral patterns or mix and match loud colors. Next time you’re shopping, pick up some pieces that defy dress codes and express yourself.
