HONEYMOON
We travel more often, with a more adventurous mindset. The collection embodies the possibilities of embracing life.
Honeymoon is a romantic holiday print collection for Summer 23, in response to the post pandemic attitude of going out more, travelling more and how we are now determined to see the world in our own time. Inspired by foreign travels, Honeymoon bliss, love and loss. The collection embodies the possibilities of embracing life, inspired by my Mum, a widowed single parent who has shown me to put happiness over heartache. You’re not too young or old to make the most of life- the collection has no target age.
Honeymoon isn’t a phase, it’s an attitude; a way of living. A contemporary take on beach cover-ups will inform ready-to-wear designs that can transition from day to night. The holiday looks will use flowing organza, 100% linen, silk satin and 100% silk noil that moves in a Santorini style wind. Goddess like garments will be adorned with print rather than heavy beading to give a representation of embellishment with an everyday wearability; designed to fit changing trends and last a lifetime- just like the memories made in the clothes.
