SWEET DREAMS
For the autumn/winter collection, Yves Delorme has found inspiration in the beauty of the winter garden.
Natural elements and motifs, such as leaves dancing in the wind, are set against a soft colour palette of ivory, neutrals, sienna and new wintery blue tones that suggest the light at dawn and the blue-grey shade of the late afternoon sky just before night falls.
New pieces include Ornement and Ramage (above), both of which come with a piped finish.
