The Making Of The Wildflower Print

The Making Of The Wildflower Print

If you’ve been following Zilpah Tart for a while, you might remember seeing a collaboration between Peony n Pearl and I on the Fashfest Runway back in 2016.  Peony n Pearl is a local Canberra Florist run by ladyboss Fioinna Tamin.  For the Fashfest show, Fionna created amazing live flower accessories to match my Skyline Collection. The huge headpiece was a show stopper!

We decided to collaborate again, but this time I wanted to use her beautiful arrangements in the actual fabric print.  When Fionna had some bouquets ready for a wedding, I raced over to her studio and photographed a beautiful Wildflower bouquet which formed the base of the new Wildflower Print. 

I took the photo and played around with different repeats, scales and background colours, and settled on the final design, with a silver to charcoal gradient as the background.  The colours in the print look amazing and the detail in the flowers is incredible.

I absolutely love the outcome of this print. Such gorgeous bright colours to make you stand out. The Wildflower Mini Collection is available online now. Head over to the Shop to check it out!

Mohammed to the rescue. My industrial overlocker w Mohammed to the rescue. My industrial overlocker was out of service today after I hit my scissors with the blades 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

My 1970s Brother industrial machines have been sewing Zilpah Tart garments for decades. Today they had a visit from Mohammed, who has looked after them for years. He always tells me never to replace them because they were built to last, and he reckons they’ll keep going for another 25 years.

And even though he came to replace an overlocker blade, he somehow ended up fixing my studio screen door too. Small businesses really do look after each other.
Big shoutout to Mohammed and his business Good Value Repairs. He is a gem ⭐️
