The pandas look like they're eating the roses.

Om nom nom roses.

And I love Pi Phi's print. So much so that I wish that they didn't have letters on it so I could wear it.

I think the issue I have is that although I am a big fan of colorful prints, I'm not a big fan of the sort of oversized paint brushed cabbage roses thing, and the colors seem to have a seriously mid-century bent to them which has never been my favorite fashion or decor era. But I can appreciate that these prints are all Lilly first and sorority second. They definitely coordinate with their mainstream lines. I look forward to seeing them in real life some day.

Now, couldn't we get Betsey Johnson to take her turn at this? Those I'd probably DIG.

I like the Sigma Kappa one a lot really but that is pretty much it which is sad

I really don't care for the Pi Phi one, which is sad bc there are such pretty colors and symbols to work with there.
I liked the AOPi one from a distance then I zoomed in, they looked scary :-/

In regards to someone's comment about the Theta one? Definitely agree.

The Greek Letters on newest prints appear larger/less hidden than earlier prints; in AXD's case REALLY prominent letters (which may disappear when yellowgold straps/finishes are added to completed products).

Overall in the 'old' group I enjoy Delta Delta Delta's production design/colorings and Chi O's understated look. New prints, AOII and EK are very bold prints (on the order of DZ) it remains to be seen how final products look.

I really love Sigma Kappa's print. I was worried Lilly would butcher it somehow, but I really like how they incorporated our open motto and our visual identity logo along with the violets, pearls and doves. And to anyone who says lavender and maroon don't look good together, I'd show them this print. If you use a brick red maroon, then yeah, it'll look bad, but if you use a wine/purple-toned maroon, it harmonizes quite well with lavender when you add other shades of pink and purple.

Obviously, I am biased in that I think ours is the prettiest Lilly print ever, but I like most of the others in this bunch too. Pi Phi's is very nice. I like that the Phi Mu print has enough contrast in the varying shades of pink so that you can see the detail better. (Comparing it to some of the others where you can only appreciate the detail up close.)

They're at it again...only with STATES this time.

I already saw a huge push for SC, but really...what's the point? That's like Ralph Lauren offering school activity prints and the equestrian team requesting one.

How many years do you think it will take for Montana to get one?

I am not getting sucked into that voting frenzy again....

Depends on if American Samoa and Guam want one, that will bump them back.

Pennsylvania is the nation's largest producer of mushrooms and of potato chips. They would make a great print. Oh, and some anthracite, too.

I, for one, cannot wait to have an ol' Honest Abe, corn, and cardinal print. Yeah, buddy.
