What will women and men be wearing come Fall?  The moral of the season just might be that there is no single defining point of view ~ there is diversity in style, silhouette, and color ~ This is what makes fashion great.

Red is the color of Fall 2017; however, Brown is the new black with honorable mentions going to the yellow and Blue family. This season is all about the plaid in a variety of color combinations from pants to shirts and scarves.  Fishnet leggings are all the rage and will be seen paired with dresses, tunics and shirt dresses.  Fur continues to be a hot trend in stoles, wraps and collared scarves.  There is a touch of sparkle for Fall 2017 with sequins being added to everything from tank tops, dresses, scarves and handbags…Speaking of handbags this season is sure to be a smash hit with unique styling in micro bags that are just big enough to fit the necessities, to oversized totes, and backpacks.  In addition, we have interchangeable straps to make an old bag new again, as well as handbags with handles that can be worn in a multitude of ways.

Jewelry for Fall 2017 is an innovative mix and matching a variety of mediums with fusions of materials and colors creating different designs.  There are pearls and Suede, metal and leather combining to make statement necklaces and earrings.  The pieces are artful and bold.  We expect continued success with our Harp string bracelets, and a variety of wide wrap bracelets that are perfect for layering.

Men’s is the top growing category in retail and MAD MAN continues to be the industry leader.  MAD MAN is a top seller and we have expanded to include a “black label” collection of some higher end pieces so we can fit the niche in every store.  We have distressed leather briefcases and backpacks, newly designed leather wallets and money clips.  A spectacular introduction of men’s 100% wool ties, and trendy bow ties all nicely boxed.  New watches in stellar quality, and much, much more.  Fall 2017 should turn out to be a magnificent introduction for MAD MAN.

P. Graham Dunn’s Summer lineup features a wide variety of carved pieces, as well as some unique shapes and sizes. Showcasing a classic farmhouse style, paired with the exposure of natural pine wood grain, creates a timeless look.

Signature Signs– Modeled after vintage commercial signage from years past, from shape to font, every detail is accentuated. Added distressing, unique text treatments, and detailed embellishments deliver a product that is in every way unique.

Back 40’s- Named after the large acreage often found behind a farmhouse, each of these pieces are sizable, elaborately designed, and carved. With meticulous attention to detail, from distressing the paint, to the grains in the wood, each piece appears as if it’s been weathered for years.

Barrel Tops- These circular signs were created to resemble the lids of old, wooden shipping barrels. Artistic weathered designs and faux slats are applied, then paired with sentiments of encouragement.

Faux Tin & Timber- Imitating the look of galvanized steel, combined with a natural stained pine frame, these signs present a unique blend of raw materials. From the staining of the frame to the placement of the sentiment, each piece is artfully detailed.

Carved, vintage, farmhouse and handcrafted are all aspects that can be seen intertwined throughout our Summer 2017 Introduction. We take pride in the fact that this introduction is entirely designed and produced domestically in our Dalton, Ohio factory.
