Love Language Opera Duster
Joyful flowers, whimsical declarations of the heart, and unapologetic hope — this is our love language! The amazing artwork used for this piece was hand-drawn in Pennsylvania in 1854, and was originally created as a backdrop for a perfume and botanical extract display. We reworked the images and added our own touches — including the heart-in-hand (the symbol for kindness and charity), and messages in historic fonts (“Love is the only gold” and “Love one another”) to complement the original hand-lettering. The result is a true original: romantic, bohemian, and super cool.
100% bamboo/wood viscose. Machine wash gentle or handwash and hang to dry. Iron to finish if needed.
Kimono measurements: length 116cm, width 78 cm (across back, underarm to underarm). Model is 5’8” for reference.

“Hope is the thing with feathers, that perches in the soul / and sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all.”
- Emily Dickinson
“Wildflowers don’t care where they grow.”

From the moment we created this joyful piece, we’ve been having so much fun wearing it! It’s perfect with jeans, a plain white tee, and white sneakers — but it’s equally as perfect levelled-up with a slip dress or long skirt and some statement accessories. It also mixes beautifully with green, deep blue, red, or brick, so don’t be afraid to layer it over brighter solids. We’ve been wearing it lately with jeans, a cream lace tank, cowboy boots, turquoise earrings, and a big smile :)
PS… we love getting creative with our duster belts, and this one is such a playful wardrobe accent! Tie it in your hair, on a bag (as pictured), or weave it through the belt loops on your jeans.

The optimist, the kind-hearted. Women who exude joy — who bring hope and happiness to everyone they love. Women who keep the faith — and help the rest of us keep it too ;)

In 1800’s and early 1900’s before the era of screens, advertisers needed their print ads and store displays to be as eye catching and visually captivating as possible to grab the viewer’s attention. Posters, magazine prints ads, and in-store backdrops during the Victorian period were often riotous, colourful, and packed with lush visuals. The more flourishes the better! We absolutely love working with these antique art pieces… they still manage to capture the imagination, even hundreds of years later.

If Love is Gold (after Emily Dickinson)
If love is gold, her riches run deep. She spends love like water, like it grows on trees, rich as the ripe sun on fields of wheat, rich as food too rich to eat. Love flies
from her pockets like finches, each with a song so sweet and a wet red heart in a feathered breast that swells with hope each beat. She spends
love like it never leaves. Pursestrings loose as her lips that speak saying take my love, I have more than I need
