RAINFOREST EVOKES A STUNNING TROPICAL PARADISE
Lauren Graham
Deliciously tactile and dramatically interpreted, Rainforest is a design story which evokes a stunning tropical paradise. Harnessing a heady combination of embroidery, appliqué and jewel-bright digital printing, the five themes bring a fresh dimension to décor, presenting exotic flora alongside bold, primitive abstracts.
Heading the array are Passion Flower and Peru, a pair of tropical trails embellished with lavish embroidery and appliquéd detailing. The augmentation continues in Rainforest, where digitally-printed palm leaves are given extra depth through embroidered highlights. Companion designs Inca and Salvador take a more measured approach, their proud ikat-style motifs evoking the spirit and iconography of ancient civilisations.
The impact of the Rainforest collection is intensified by luscious new colours: sizzling shades of Orchid and Cayenne, cooler hues of Indigo and Bamboo plus imaginative medleys dubbed Paradise and Waterfall all partner with a wide spectrum of plains.
