Sometimes the flowers need to be a bit Byrd. Ms Byrd and Ms Spry are my two invented flower muses. Byrd flowers are elegant, glamourous, decadent. Maybe you’re thinking French Riviera or Palm Springs, maybe it’s more Bianca Jagger at Studio 54 or something gothic and fabulous. We can do that…
Other times the occasion calls for something a bit Spry.
The Spry style is inspired by the work of Constance Spry. It’s meadows and hedgerows, blossom, berries, vines, rough seaweed and driftwood. It’s English, it’s seasonal, twiggy, wild.
“I want to shout out: “Do what you please, follow your own star; be original if you want to be and don’t if you don’t want to be. Just be natural and gay and light-hearted and pretty and simple and overflowing and general and baroque and bare and austere and stylised and wild and daring and conservative, and learn and learn and learn. Open your minds to every form of beauty.”
Constance Spry
