Fauna fantasies
Reveal your animal instincts; this is a luxe prowl

You can be someone’s pet, but no one can completely tame you. Animal prints this season are not just about being über sexy, but also about unleashing your imagination. Aside from our feline family favourites, there are mythical hybrid creatures like panther-moth, zebra-dragonfly or python-macaw. Not for the faint-hearted, but also not for those without any restraint whatsoever. There is a fine line between luxe-glam and jarring-tarty; please do not cross it.

Flora femme
Bloom into a jungle goddess; let nature take over

Out-of-control blooms, petals of paradise, overgrown weeds and leaf showers transport you to the sets of Alice in Wonderland meets Lost. Flowers jump out of neatly arranged bouquets and vases to take over. Leaves, trellises and branches go psychedelic. Print mixes and watercolour screens come alive on breezy resort-wear comprising flowy maxi dresses, diaphanous kaftans, silken scarves, broad-rimmed floppy hats and even footwear. Create a fashionable jungle-spa blend.
