Question about a style/clothing pattern from the '80's?

Asked by lonelydragon (7770points) December 20th, 2009

I found a picture of a cute, ‘80’s inspired hoody, and I was wondering if the checkered-style pattern had a name. Here are pictures of the hoodie:

Reminds me of a highly pixellated houndstooth.

It’s called a houndstooth check.

@Buttonstc There are additional pictures on the right hand side of the page.

@john65pennington Eventually, I was able to find out more info because the designer made another item with that pattern. As you said, this style isn’t common anymore, which is why it intrigued me. I remember that one of the richest, most popular girls in my elementary school class had a black and white sweater that was similar to the sweatshirt.

Pandore and hiphiphop, thanks for the name. That was bugging me! lol
