Adding a little personal flare to your clothing has always been in style, but now we are seeing personal patchwork flare to the extremes. Patchwork is such a unique concept because it can diversify any article of clothing or accessory while making every item extraordinary and one of a kind.

This trend is blowing up everywhere. College students are including patchwork to their jean jackets, bomber coats, and hats to show school spirit. Top designer brands are also doing the same thing! Customizing a designer clothing article is like acting like the designer yourself! This new and exciting concept fits every style panel because of the unlimited options of patches you can add!

College campuses are being flooded with students creating unique patchwork designs to accompany their school spirt or affiliated Greek association. An amazing company that is thriving with their unique patchwork designs is Unemployed Denim. This company offers a three-step process to their customers. The first step is to pick your patches. The second step is to pick the denim, and the third is to fill out your paperwork for correct shipment. This unique process offers complete customization on vintage denim. You can add your school’s colors, or your Greek letters, and anything that you love or makes you, you.

Marc Jacob’s is starting a high-end designer patchwork denim jacket trend with this kind of customization. Some of their stores offer “Patch Bars” where customers can come in and pick which patches they want on their coat, handbag, backpack, etc. Customers can also customize these products on Marc Jacobs website as well.

Never enough patches. ✌🏼🌿⚡️ New embellished backpacks in bio. #PatchMarc
