A celebration of all things floral
Last month Tricia Guild worked hand in hand with florist Juliet Glaves, transforming the Designers Guild hidden garden on the Kings Road into a collection of arrangements, fabrics and wallpapers – a celebration of all things floral.
Being inspired by the foliage and blooms grown all year long on her modest flower farm in Shropshire, Juliet’s arrangements showcase her natural and seasonal style. And although the show is now over there is still plenty of floral news to be excited about in July.
The Designers Guild's 'Orangerie II' collection which inspired Juliet is still available in store and online.
