There’s a lush new trend on our radar, one that juxtaposes the humblest of items to create playful pieces with a touch of both whimsy and luxury. Designers are getting creative with flowers, which may look pretty in vases, but are even more charming when
embedded in everything from bags and bookmarks to coats and coasters.
The process is painstaking, but also unexpectedly avant-garde and aesthetically pleasing, and serves to eternalise the beauty of blooms that would otherwise fade away. Case in point: the see-through coats, purses and earrings from New York label Dauphinette, which feature real flowers and petals.
