The Caribbean is a place of two seasons, hot and hotter, and for this reason is a perpetual playground, a vacationer's paradise, where formalities are lazily observed and afternoons pass into evening into morning in a somnolent daze. Butterflies and Hummingbirds is a line inspired by the colour, lightness and freedom of these two perfectly tropical animals. The Jamaican Giant Swallowtail Butterfly (an endangered species), the Doctor Bird (Streamer-tailed Hummingbird) and the Jamaican Mango Hummingbird are endemic to Jamaica, as is our laid-back attitude. “Butterflies and Hummingbirds” combines ethnic and modern geometric forms with inspirations drawn from the rich heritage of the Caribbean, layering lushly textured, lightweight fabrics with clean geometric lines. This collection, available in pure cottons, linens and silks (Shantung and Duponi) enables a gentle transition from day into evening with looks that are defined and transformed by the wearer's state of mind.
