Limited edition dresses and separates to launch in May inspired by RHS Lindley Library.
The RHS is to launch a limited edition apparel collaboration with occasionwear brand Coast.
A collection of eight dresses and separates will launch in May, using floral designs inspired by the RHS Lindley Library.
Combining hand-painted techniques with photographic prints, the collection emphasises colour through its use of carefully selected illustrations drawn from the riches of the RHS Lindley Library.
The range will be available in Coast’s top 14 stores, including its Oxford Street flagship and new concept store in Gateshead Metrocentre, and online at coast-stores.com.
Neil Hendy, creative director at Coast, said: “Our design team has used the RHS Chelsea Flower Show as a key source of inspiration for many years, so to collaborate with the RHS and gain access to the RHS Lindley Library Collection was something that we were very excited about – and, we’re confident our customers will love this collection.”
Cathy Snow, RHS’ licensing manager, added: “For our first partnership in fashion apparel we wanted to work with a clothing brand able to do justice to the incredible artwork in the RHS Lindley Library.
“We could not have found a better partner. Coast has designed a wonderful collection of limited edition pieces celebrating the beauty of flowers.”
