Love Language Pixie Duster (Cropped Length)

$120.00

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% viscose (derived from plant fibres such as bamboo and wood). Machine wash gentle or handwash and hang to dry. Iron to finish if needed.

Kimono measurements: length 58cm, width (across back, underarm to underarm) 74cm. Model is 5’8” for reference.

“Love is the only gold.”

- Alfred Lord Tennyson

“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.”

- Dolly Parton

How To Wear

+

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 :)

Our Muse

+

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 ;)

More Inspo

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.

The Poem

+

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

I’m Obsessed!

I discovered these dusters at a local shop and bought both items (luckily they were ones that were sold out on your website. I loved them so much, I bought five more including this one! They are so lightweight and soft. Perfect to wear over tank tops and to keep the sun off your arms without being too warm. I’m obsessed!
