The convergence of art, design, and apparel: SingleTree Lane’s great artists collection

This collection pays homage to both legendary masters and hidden visionaries, merging brushstroke and thread into one continuous narrative. From Van Gogh and Matisse to Gustav Klimt, Michalina Janoszanka, Wassily Kandinsky, Ernst Kirchner, and Paul Klee, Davenport translates their timeless energy into silhouettes that are as expressive as the paintings that inspired them. 
 
“I wanted to build a bridge between the museum wall and the street,” Davenport explains. “To let people wear what once only hung behind glass.”

From Museum Aisles to the Runway 

The conception of Great Artists took root in Davenport’s habitual ritual of inspiration: visiting local museums and cultural landmarks during her business travels. Whether standing before a Kandinsky at LACMA or tracing the abstract intensity of Van Gogh at the Getty, she captured these encounters through photography and sketch. Each trip became a meditation on color, light, and mood. Material later reborn as textile. 

A Dialogue Between Past and Present 

Each design within Great Artists began as a moment of inspiration during Davenport’s travels. Museum visits, gallery stops, even botanical gardens became visual journals. Standing before the gestural explosions of great artists, she captured color and rhythm through her own digital lens, later transforming those impressions into layered textile compositions. 

The results are wide-leg pants, cropped pullovers, heavyweight sweatshirts, and fleece-lined cardigans that move like paintings come to life. Every print evokes balance between chaos and control, vibrancy and calm: an interplay of art and emotion rendered for everyday wear. 

Sustainability as a Canvas 

SingleTree Lane’s commitment to innovation extends well beyond the studio. The label’s made-to-order production model minimizes waste, while its use of midweight eco-poly athletic-wear fabric (used in over 70 % of the catalog) – crafted from recycled plastic bottles – ensures that beauty never comes at the planet’s expense. Lightweight, breathable, machine washable, and wrinkle-resistant, for real-world excursions. 

For Davenport, sustainability is not a marketing trend but a moral extension of artistry. “True art,” she says, “protects the world that inspires it.” 

Wearable Masterpieces 

Among the stand-outs of the collection is the Kandinsky Red Oval Sweatshirt, a striking interpretation of the artist’s abstract dynamism rendered in gold, denim, and graffiti-inspired patterning. Its bold interplay of circles and color blocks channels pure kinetic energy, turning movement into art. 
 
The Matisse Decorative Figure Quarter-Zip Pullover and its matching Tavira Wide Leg Pants capture the sculptural joy of Matisse’s decorative forms, blending ornamental motifs with contemporary streetwear ease. Together, they form a look that is both refined and exuberant—perfectly embodying Davenport’s “museum-to-metropolis” aesthetic. 
 
For admirers of Van Gogh, two pieces stand at the emotional core of the collection: Boats of the Saint Marys Cropped Pullover, a soft patchwork ode to maritime tranquility, and Flowering Almond Twig Cardigan, re-imagined as a fleece-lined statement piece where delicate blossoms bloom against contrasting camouflage frames. Both designs invite introspection and celebrate the fragile beauty that defined Van Gogh’s work. 

Art for Every Body 

The Great Artists collection redefines the idea of accessibility in art. To wear these garments is to engage with a living exhibition: each piece a tactile conversation between creator, wearer, and muse. Davenport encourages every person to become part of the story – democratized art – fashion for those who wish to live inside their inspiration rather than merely admire it. 

The garments are versatile, meant to move from gallery openings to city streets, from creative studios to weekend escapes. 

A Modern Renaissance 

The Great Artists Collection follows her celebrated appearance at Los Angeles Fashion Week in October. Each reveal feels less like a runway and more like a cultural happening—a blend of gallery, atelier, and performance. Davenport’s garments exist at the intersection of fine art and daily life, capturing a global appetite for authenticity and conscious luxury. 
 
Anita Davenport stands as a true modern Renaissance figure: one who fuses art history with innovation, sustainability with sensuality, and high design with heartfelt purpose. Her message is clear: the masterpieces of the past need not remain behind museum glass. Through color, pattern, and care, they can live again. On the body, in motion, and in conversation with the modern world. 

In this convergence of art, design, and apparel, SingleTree Lane’s Great Artists Collection doesn’t just celebrate creativity: it wears it proudly.
