3. MODERN NOMAD

Modern Nomad We love how Frame Denim’s new collection intermixes classic denim silhouettes with nomadic influences. Tasseled textiles doubled as effortless wraps, lending a global feel to light-wash boyfriend jeans and simple white tank tops. Our Asgar Bath Sheet embodies the modern nomad trend with its embroidered geometric border, not to mention its historic origins in the Anatolian region of Turkey.
