Goodbye Winter, Hello Spring

Our day out at the Chelsea Flower Show...

The infamous Chelsea Flower Show is a splendid British event, and the ilovegorgeous team were lucky enough to celebrate it’s centenary show over the Bank Holiday weekend. The CFS proved why it has stood the test of time with its weird and wonderful statues, wild piles of blooms, and a regal history.





 The NSPCC’s spellbinding “Garden of Magical Childhood” took us back to the days of building rickety tree houses and playing hide and seek with our teddy bears. Designed by Adam Woolcott and Jon Smith, the garden holds a wonder of nostalgic features - vintage toys,  kaleidoscopic flowers and even a wishing pond. The show imitates a child’s imagination and supports the “What Will we Leave?” campaign which hopes to get us thinking about the precariousness of childhood and what we are leaving behind.


 


We were fascinated by the artistic and inventive displays, and and the show was a huge source of inspiration for our designers Lucy and Sophie. We have included plenty of pretty florals in our current collection from floaty fairy dresses to bright retro bikinis. There's a print for every gorgeous girl to choose from whether it be our delicate ditzy, 50’s tulip or funky fluorescent print!
