This designer may be known for celebrating the traditions of Africa, Japan, and other far-flung lands, but her Patio Stripe in 11 colors is all-American. Part of the Fun in the Sun collection, it's executed in 100 percent Sunbrella solution-dyed acrylic, meaning that when it comes to lasting through rain, sun, stains, and mildew, this cheery pattern is also all business. 150 Varick Street, New York, NY 10013; 212-366-1146; sinapearson.com.
