It's no secret that women love flowers - for floral printed fabrics have been a
fashionable item for hundreds of years. Flowers are symbolic of femininity
and life, for they reveal the beauty of our biophilic world.
This Luxe Paris Sundrenched Dress, with its vibrant floral patterning,
puts an exclamation point on our love affair with nature!
Biophilia is the love of life and the living world. It is our affinity as
human beings for other life forms. In architecture for example, it is used
to enhance people's health and sense of well being.
Fashion, like architecture, embraces the same spirit of creativity by
borrowing the fractal patterns and beautiful chaotic
equations derived from nature, to nurture our biophilic needs.
The dual towers of the Bosco Verticale apartment complex in Milan is one
such fine example. It features staggered terraces with approximately 800 trees -
enough to landscape a 3-acre forest. This project won Europe’s
International Highrise Award in 2014 for most innovative building.

Historically, the floral print originated from the east and Asia.
Traders imported fabrics with ornate floral designs to the
western world where they sold for very high prices.

To wear such floral fabric then was truly a status symbol. As fabrics evolved,
especially those created later in the Art Nouveau style, designers introduced
stylized and modern floral motifs inspired by these Asian influences.

The design and slim fit of this dress makes it perfect for casual spring/summer events. Its off shoulder neckline helps to define the feeling and overall sophisticated tone of this stunning number which perfectly frames the face while minimizing the bustline.
