An entire reef flourishing across a ground of deep saffron — angelfish, starfish, sea fans and coral drawn in jade, cobalt and rose, packed until the yellow shows only in the gaps. Warm ground under cool subject is an unusual combination and it gives the print a lit-from-within quality that a blue ground never would. Sunlit, dense and cheerful.
Top — The shortest of the three, hitting at the top of the thigh, just below the waist, with a wide boat neck and fluid kimono sleeves. Sharpest over something high-waisted — wide-leg trousers, a column skirt, good denim.
Mini — Falls to mid-thigh — a dress in its own right, with soft kimono sleeves and a relaxed, unstructured line. Wear it alone, belted or loose, or layer it over trousers, denim, or a slip skirt for a longer look.
Printed on mulberry silk. One size, generously cut. Cool hand wash or dry clean.
Also photographed as the Saffron Reef Long Kaftan.
