Talk:Paisley (design)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Bloods/Crips

The Blood/Crips connection seems to have more to do with the color of the bandana, and little or nothing to do with paisley; the paisley design is incidental, being a traditional bandana pattern. On the other hand, I remember a big paisley revival (shirts, blouses etc.) during the mid-1980s. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 20:12, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

AGREE. Yeah, I think you're right and that the Bloods/Crips info belongs in kerchief (which covers bandanas) rather than here. I'll pull it out on the next revision, unless someone beats me to it. — LisaSmall ^T/C 21:02, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] LLOYD KNOX

This design remains today in California due to a single individual, Lloyd Knox. His unabated patronage and fervor for the design has inspired countless individuals to adopt this traditional and unique pattern. I would like to propose the inclusion of Lloyd Knox under the “High-Profile and Iconic Use” title of the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.197.85.114 (talk) 05:52, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

I could not agree more!! I can furnish at least 3 print articles citing Knox's influence in both state and possibly national levels. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.130.49.27 (talk) 23:05, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
