Editor's Note

Designed at the height of the Art Nouveau revival, this densely structured botanical by Liberty London showcases the organic forms popular in the period, reworked in a new, larger-scale graphic layout. Crepe de chine is one of the best silk bases for daytime wear – it’s effortlessly luxe, with a lightweight drape that’s made more durable by its matte, slightly rough surface. Try using crepe de chine to create a louche effect with wide-leg trousers and loosely tailored shirts, or with fluted sleeves and ruffled accents for a romantic feel.
