Let's do Summer....
Oh our Summer collection is always so much fun it has with lots of cool shades in blue and green then for the first time some vintage light pink (yes that's right DB doing pink) in fun, cool, flirty styles with a classic, contemporary, practical everyday feel. I love the idea of making fabulous styles that don't date and can be apart of wonderful experiences that make future memories. Ice creams with the kids, cocktails with friends, lunch dates with the girls and fun sunny days outdoors in the splendour that is this warmer time of year. I just love it.....
This summer collection includes textured crisp cotton, soft summer rayons, natural linens, always florals, palms, bamboo, lace, spots and ferns. In a very subtle season I've included navy, green, crisp white, dusty pink and shades of mustard. As a part of my classic summer vibe this season I am bringing back some the best, with Tunic Dresses like Twiggy and Naomi, also favourite re-cuts like Miranda and Hazel. There are some awesome new season styles like the Sammy Jo, Brielle, Tabitha, Rylee Jumpsuit and back to our heritage style with vintage inspired Sarah and Lucy Dresses all in our signature prints and new season colour palette. There's amazing new cuts like the Maureen Skirt and Sienna Wrap Skirt, both of these skirts are just fabulous for work or play with a 70's feel.
We have some of our best selling styles back for Summer like Beatrice, Marilyn, Pearl and the always best selling Stardust Pants. Along with the return of our Mr. November Tops.
I am also introducing some stunning leather pieces in bags, clutches and wide belts. Just perfect to accompany all our new season styles and prints.
Anyone that knows me, knows I love the childhood memories i have from being a 70's child in Australia at this time of year. My inspiration for this Summer season with palms, spots and florals comes from the memory of my Mum (Anne) & our crazy flat roofed home I grew up in. The mirror palm wallpaper in our sunroom, the crisp blue lake water contrasting with the gumtrees that surrounded it and vintage florals that are a tribute maybe to my very floral wallpaper in my room. There's some vintage, some retro and some classic in this collection. It's been 10 years since I started this label and I am not exactly sure how many ranges in that time but this one I love. It maybe because Summer is the funnest season, it maybe because again it's inspired by my Mum or maybe its just fabulous...!!
I hope you think so too.....
