The Story & Print
THE PRINT
Guava
Rendered in soft charcoal tones, this print reimagines the Guava in quiet contrast, offering a tender reflection on restraint, ripeness, and the subtle beauty of fruit in shadow.
THE COLOUR
Base: Soft Pale Pink for top, Smoky Slate for bottom
Print: Muted Grey and Ash
Belt: Forest Green, Smoky Sage, White, Pink, Burgundy
THE STORY
Cut in a soft pale pink and inky palette, it features a clean hidden placket that runs through the bodice, allowing the print to unfold uninterrupted. The folded cuffs and tailored stand collar nod to utility, while the skirt falls in fluid folds, printed with ghosted leaves in grayscale that echo botanical studies more than florals. A striped sash breaks the mood with an unexpected jolt of colour and graphic structure, cinching the waist without disturbing the ease of the silhouette.
For the office, it pairs effortlessly with a tailored cream blazer and block-heeled loafers, letting the print stay visible but grounded. At night, trade polish for presence—add sculptural earrings, a deep-toned clutch and a sharper heel to draw out the dress’s darker undercurrent. On weekends, ease into it with a flat slide, sleeves pushed up, sash tied loose.
