The Spring 2025 Collection
Step into a world where the sea meets the sweetest of cottagecore escapes. Imagine a place where shimmering waves whisper secrets to the shore, and the air is a soft melody of pastel hues. It’s the spring of 1975, and a group of mermaids, gliding through the deepest blues of the ocean, have discovered a hidden haven by the sea—a charming cottage perched on the edge of the sand. It’s their secret escape from the ocean’s vastness, where they retreat when they need a break from the tides and a moment of rest in the warmth of the sun.
But even in their moments of peace, the mermaids bring the sea with them. Inside their cottage, the walls are adorned with shells they’ve gathered over the years, glistening like treasure from a forgotten world. The mermaids use sea shells not only as decor but as tools—brushes, cups, and baskets for their collection of oceanic wonders. And, in the most delightful of quirks, they brush their hair with forks—pieces of silver from old shipwrecks, repurposed to tame their waves.
This spring, our collection draws inspiration from these magical mermaids and their tranquil, whimsical life by the sea. We’ve curated a wardrobe that feels both effortlessly chic and whimsically nostalgic—perfect for those who seek the freedom of the ocean and the beauty of a simpler, softer life.
Colors that Tell a Story:
Powder blue, light peach, lavender, and chartreuse dominate this collection—each shade a reflection of the soft, dream-like quality of the mermaids’ existence. Powder blue mirrors the calm of the ocean’s surface at dawn, while lavender whispers the serenity of twilight skies. Light peach captures the warmth of the cottage’s glowing windows, and chartreuse nods to the unexpected vibrance of the sea, from its sunlit shallows to the wild, untamed seaweed.
The Fabrics:
The newest fabric for our collection is found in cotton sleepwear, delicately crafted with multicolored painted stripes that resemble the ebb and flow of ocean waves. The stripes, in their soft pastel colors, bring to mind the mermaids' dance with the sea breeze, effortless and free. Sweet pastel embroidery is woven into each piece, telling the stories of the sea—whale tails, starfish, and sea plants—carefully stitched by hand.
In contrast, bespoke new prints grace soft modal rib fabric, including the striking Lady of the Sea. This print, rich with swirling water motifs and the silhouette of a ship and cameo of a woman, captures the essence of a timeless sea queen—one who roams the deep waters but longs for the peace of the shore. It’s a print that speaks to both strength and softness, an intricate balance embodied by the mermaids themselves.
The embroidery styles in this collection also have a sensual edge—delicate, yet inviting. Flowers bloom in unexpected places, and soft vines twirl around necklines like the gentle currents that flow beneath the waves. Each stitch evokes the mermaids’ secret life, where they exist in a world of beauty and wild, untamed romance.
For the Dreamer, the Seeker, and the Mermaid:
This collection is for those who want to escape the rush of modern life, just as the mermaids escape to their cottage by the sea. It’s for those who cherish softness, who treasure the romance of a life surrounded by nature’s most delicate colors, and who long for moments of serenity—whether spent on the sand or wrapped in the comfort of a cotton robe.
