While gingham is near and dear to our Southern hearts, it’s also one of the easiest patterns to wear for summer because it looks good with just about anything. Surprisingly the name gingham comes from the Malayan word genggang means “striped,” but the pattern you might be more  familiar has more of a checked design. Gingham was first made popular in mid-18th century England, and then was finally adopted in the U.S. during World War II as an affordable fashion. No wonder why we love this classic, vintage-inspired pattern—it’s timeless!Related: The Best Gingham Products for the HomeAs an ode to one of our favorite patterns for summer, we rounded up some of our favorite gingham shirts, skirts, and pants from Christopher & Banks, which has tons of incredible deals on women’s clothes.
