The majority of the Lilly sorority prints have not done justice to the sorority symbols they are representing, imho.

I think Kappa Delta is my favorite. The Phi Mu one isn't great, but it's about the best I could expect, given our colors/symbols.

I think my favorites are between Pi Phi and Delta Gamma.
I'm also a little afraid of what Lilly may do to AGD... I think this has the potential to be not so attractive.

This is hysterical!!
That being said, I agree with the others who say they aren't Lilly fans. I think it's an acquired taste, and not one I'm ever going to acquire! Just like I don't get the buzz over Vera Bradley bags...they look like my grandmother's knitting bag...BLECH!

I must be in the minority, I like my organization's print. I was expecting a lavender and maroon monstrosity with scary doves right out of Hitchcock's The Birds. I was pleasantly surprised.

IndianaSigKap - I love our print too! I have the tote and the scarf with me on a business trip. I like that they are something I might pick out and carry just because they're pretty, and they also happen to have our letters on them.

I really like our print too. I'd like the scarf, but I can't much justify $80 on a scarf. I considered getting the tote for work this school year, but can't really get myself on board with the pepto pink handles and piping. If they'd make one with a more neutral handle and trim, I'd be in!

I love my (Theta) print too. It hasn't been well received on these boards, but I am pleased with the way it turned out.
Some, *cough AzTheta* cough, don't like that they added light blue to our black and gold, but I truly believe that they were creating a beautiful sky background for our soaring kites. In addition, the pansies appear almost cloud-like, resulting in an overall effect that blends all of our symbols and colors into one theme for the print. For me, the effect works well. I also appreciate that our letters are in the print, but in a very subtle manner.
I have the tote bag and the scarf, and get compliments often.
I do understand the frustration of some groups, as there are sorority prints that I think they did well, and others that could have been tweaked a bit.

But the tote has gold sequins on on the handles...lol. Like that makes it better.  I am a scarf girl, I have tons of them and wear them at least two or three times a week once the weather gets cool. Otherwise, I wouldn't have gotten one. I wish there were a few more product options like an iPad cover, a zip up bag a little larger than the make up bag, etc.

I like Alpha Delta Pi's, although I don't own anything in it because it's a bit pricey. I'll probably get the phone case, though.
I think Pi Phi's is my favorite out of all of the prints. I like Kappa Delta's, too.

I don't hate our print - but there are others I like better - Chi Omega's, Delta Gamma's.
I have a theory that it's easier to like other sororities prints better because we're not emotionally attached to the colors and symbols and the meaning behind them.
That said, I lost a lot of love for Ms. Pulitzer and her empire some years back. I read in an interview that she didn't think larger women should her clothing. So, I did her the favor of not spending any of my fat money (same exchange rate as the skinny dollar) to support her.

Wow, if this is true, I am glad I didn't buy!

I would actually LOVE to see a Tri Sigma print of course, but I have to agree with some who have said the prints get less cute as time goes on.
Though I think purple & pearls & sailboats & violets should be easy to come up with a pattern that is pretty

I like our print too...a very subtle design. I have the cell phone case and the small wristlet. Wish they would bring back the traveler tote.
