From the Editor
Pretty is back, but bolder than ever before. What once was grey is now emblazoned with florals, what was navy is now pastel in shade. Dark, ditsy-print wallpapers wrap whole rooms in moody glamour, lace curtains bellow in the breeze and a dash of retro chintz is unashamedly working its way back into fashion. Not the return of girlishness as we know it, this new trend mirrors the modern woman of today; strong, independent and not afraid to wear personality on her sleeves.
This month, in the season of blooms and new beginnings, we say hello to the rise of modern feminine interiors, plus introduce our latest arrivals.

...But it would be nothing without a woman or a girl. Bye-bye hard lines and grey-on-grey colour schemes; this year we’re seeing soft fabrics and fresh feminine hues bring a touch of woman to our homes. Even the colour pink has had its own rebrand, with Pantone’s 2019 colour of the year a scorching coral, zinging with warmth and joy. Read the full story and see inside real homes that epitomise the new modern feminine trend.
