Rowan

Whispers of all things feminine encircle Spring Summer 2010, with elegance, vintage and drape being the central qualities. Natural, sustainable yarns are fast becoming the norm and not the exception. Hemp, linen and corn provide heavier, rustic textures, whereas sumptuous silk and viscose tease with their perfect fluidity, stitch definition and understated shine.
