The Spring Summer <strong>2017</strong> Collection embraces a<br />
carefree, bohemian direction<br />
This spring summer <strong>2017</strong> collection embraces a carefree, bohemian direction with<br />
an enchanting vision of fresh blooms, delicate hues and fluid shapes.<br />
Recalling imperial Suzhou gardens, romantic Wisteria or Chinese blossoms cascade<br />
along outfits – either a breezy summer shift, light poly-silk parka or a dramatic long<br />
silk gown. Inspiring peace and serenity, this collection is light in touch so features<br />
delicate sheers, wispy silk, lace and fabrics like peony jacquard and chrysanthemum<br />
cloque. Even pieces like the palm jacquard cotton knit coat, pullovers and parkas are<br />
kept summery through airy construction.<br />
Punchy floral accents and 3D wild flower embellishments adorn corners of simple<br />
separates or on the back of a qipao where intricate detailing compliments the fresh<br />
shape of the range.<br />
Select pieces are inspired by fine Chinese ceramics – a translucent mint green<br />
porcelain is taken from the distinctive glaze of Celadon vases – highly valued in<br />
Chinese Imperial courts. Then antique Wedgewood ceramic patterns influence a<br />
range of colour contrast prints.<br />
