The neckline of a crocheted dress mimics ethnic lines associated with the middle east....

while a scarf contains elongated lines and diagonals much like a metal trash can!

The rivets of a chuck taylor brand of sneakers create the same implied line as the post of a street sign!

The curvy lines of a playground's structure and monkey bars can also be found in a key-hole neckline.

The soft gradients of a tiered prom skirt are similar to the effect of shadow lines across house siding...

The lines of a garden lattice are almost identical to those that form a classic argyle pattern!

Color blocking on a colorful stone sculpture echo in the segmented lines of a color blocked shift

Cultural graffiti that lurks behind city buildings makes a cameo on hooded street wear.

The lines imprinted on crinkled silk during the tie-dye process produce an effect much like metal rust on concrete....

Graphic and abstract lines of a metal sign are strikingly similar to those of a printed woven top!
