The white edit

Joyous and optimistic, white makes everything brighter. The colour may be nothing new for us, but even after 30 years, we’re always finding new ways for it to shape our season.

1.

Perfect simplicity

Our chicly minimalist vases are ideal for oversized, sculptural branches or tiny posies, bringing a little of the joy of the season into your home.

2.

Finishing touches

These sandstone hearts make ideal table decorations – a modern update on a napkin ring, and pretty enough to keep out even when the table isn’t laid.

Brighten up any day with our loose, airy and floaty cargo trousers. It’s not hard to feel stylish when you’re this comfortable.

Best dressed

Whatever age you are, there’s nothing quite like the feeling of a bright white summer outfit when you head out into the sunshine.

The natural neutral

We love raffia all-year round for its tactile, goes-with-everything feel, but in summer it’s our essential – a little bit of finesse and personality, to finish any outfit from beach days to cocktail hour.
