Night Garden

Night Garden

This collection is inspired in part by Paul Poiret's 1911 party 'Thousand and Second Night', where guests were asked to wear Persian dress and indulge in dancing in the moonlight. Layers of chiffon, pleated silks and vibrant prints with wide godets in flowing skirts are juxtaposed with more structured, hand pleated jackets and boleros. Some of the prints are inspired by motifs from Georges Barbier's early twentieth century illustrations.
