multicolor prints

Variegated fabric designs

Multicolor prints are printed materials—fabrics, papers, or images—produced using multiple ink colors rather than a single color or black and white.

The term appears in fashion for patterned textiles a dress in bold multicolor prints and in printmaking for works requiring separate plates or screens for each color.

Also spelled multicolour prints in British English.
