Spring Fashion
Spring! The vernal season is upon us, surrounding us with the promising whisper, the excitement, the unfurling of new life, new growth and fresh new hope for all that is beautiful. The colours and scents of our verdant landscape bring a palpable shift in our mood, both our spirit and heart lift as each day lengthens and the days warm. We are encouraged by the sun’s earlier salute to rise promptly and seize the day’s joy! Bringing soft, clean breezes, milder climes and a palpable, positive and pure new energy, we all feel a welcome change in our hopes for this most romantic of seasons and her lush abundance.
Discarding woollen knits, outerwear and the cumbersome, we now naturally seek lighter fabrics and transparent textures, the instinctive desire to feel carefree being reflected in easy silhouettes that flatter without constricting. We eschew the sombre sophistication of winter attire, instead preferencing simple shapes with subtle yet striking detail. Colours are soft but not insipid – think clear sky blue rather than baby blue; clean mid-rose pink instead of ballet. Discerning details of this Springtime style? Statement collars on white shirts add impact, sleek seventies inspired high-waisted midwash jeans fit and flatter, puff sleeves in fairy floss hues still prevail and delicate bohemian patterns underscore sleek tailoring to provide an effortless ease of style. Seersucker makes a comeback together with its preppy Hamptons charm. On the feet the mighty sneaker still rules, albeit it in metallics and embellished textures as well as classic crisp white, while the ever “cool kid” slide remains a constant. Gilded, Retro flapper style heels lend allure to a teadress or wide printed pant. Whilst for him, elegance is afforded by an impeccable tan loafer, paired back beautifully with a faultless polished cotton trouser suit.
Flowers always feature in any Spring campaign, however as well as striking blooms printed on fabric and woven into embroidered details, there is no substitute or comparison to the heady scent, the texture and unforgettable shades of the real thing. As we dress we are inspired to wear fresh flowers in our hair, as a buttonhole or corsage, or even pinned to a hat band for added freshness and femininity. Flowers symbolise our connection to, and love for, nature, new life and the innate human need for the exquisite.
Spring, a new season and a new spirit await!
