Lady In Red: One Dress, Three Ways

Take one Son De Flor frock, add accessories, et voila: three spring-perfect looks.

Son De Flor – which translates to ‘Sound of Flower – is one of our favourite fashion discoveries of recent times. The creation of sisters Indre and Vaida, like all the best things, the label came about to address a gap in the sartorial landscape. Looking for the kind of dress that their mother used to wear at Christmas and finding nothing to fit the bill, they decided to make their own.

As they describe it, it was ‘an elegant classic Peter Pan collar dress with a charming twirl from the best linen we could find in the small country near the big Baltic sea. That dress is so much more than meets the eye. It’s calm and safety. It’s home. It’s laughter around the dining table. It’s comfort and assurance. It’s modest and yet standing out. No chase of trends, nor seasons. Timeless. Feminine. Charming. Subtle.’

We have also fallen hard for the duo’s Instagram account, which features as much dancing as it does fashion. Here is how we would style this red beauty for spring.

Look One: Spring Picnic

This swingy linen dress is perfect for a day spent amongst the wildflowers, devouring sandwiches and cloudy lemonade.
