An exclusive collaboration with Paola Milani, Brisbane based artist.
Wildflowers you can wear every day. The Nectar Scarf is cut from airy cotton silk that drapes softly and feels like nothing at all on the skin. Fine red blanket stitching runs along each side, picking up the waratah tones in the print, and a row of tiny tassel fringe finishes each end with a playful swing. Loop it twice for a cool morning, let it hang long over a simple dress, or knot it loosely at the neck. It’s the easiest way to bring a little native colour into everything you wear.
Available in Cloud, Teal and Black.

About the Artist
Paola’s work draws on the natural world. For this print she turned to the Australian bush, where waratah, bottlebrush, banksia and hakea have grown extraordinary forms through heat, drought and fire. Old seed pods stand beside new flowers, and the waratah sits at the centre, vivid and unapologetically present. For Paola it’s a way of thinking about the ageing female body and self, not as an autumn leaf whose season has passed but as a whole landscape, weathered and flowering at once. Worn on the body, it carries a small reminder: ageing is not disappearance.
“Perhaps we are the whole landscape, weathered and flowering, protective and generous, carrying our histories while continuing to become.” Paola Milani
