Fleur De Lune Cottage Cardigan

$148.00

Crafted from cozy printed cotton & spandex and lined with super soft poly-fleece, our Cottage Jackets combine the warmth and comfort of a cardigan with the style, versatility, and look of our Stardusters. They are washable, and include patch pockets. After many months of development, we're so excited to welcome this special new piece to our collection for cooler days!

About the Print:

Fleur de Lune is our luminous tribute to creative dreams; the quiet magic of moonlit gardens where imagination unfurls in the hush of night. Weaving together artistry of centuries past, this opulent collection features magnolia lithographs found in 18th and 19th century natural history books from Carolina and Virginia, and hand-coloured engravings of pears and figs plucked from historic botanical prints. The delicate moths that flutter across the design — including the ethereal luna moth — come from an 1894 etching, while the little golden bumblebees on the trim are borrowed from an embossed Victorian book cover.

The background of this dreamy collage is deeply personal to Danielle, the creative behind Market of Stars. It’s a photograph of the top of her own 150-year-old work table, the space where she creates many of her designs late at night! The table’s weathered surface is layered with traces of our past prints, smudges of paint, and whispered inspirations from the previous artists who owned it—an echo of the creative spirit that lingers long after the work is done. 

Wild and lush, Fleur de Lune is an homage to the gardens that glow beneath the stars while we dream, where new ideas drift like the scent of magnolias in the night air, and the imagination — like a moth — is forever drawn to the light of the moon. 

Cotton/spandex blend outer, lined in poly fleece. Machine wash gentle or handwash, gently reshape and lay flat to dry.

Cardigan measurements: length approximately 65cm, width (across back, underarm to underarm) approximately 74cm. Model is 5’5” for reference.

“And the secret garden bloomed and bloomed and every morning revealed new miracles.”

“The ideas flow like milk and honey in my land, my mind.”
- T.S. Wright

“The night walked down the sky with the moon in her hand.”
- Frederic Knowles

How To Wear

+

This lush, cozy Cardigan is full of moonlit magic! We love the rich antiqued colours of mahogany, ivory, charcoal and deep green— so versatile for pairing with your existing wardrobe. On quiet mornings, throw it over leggings, a soft tee, and thick knit socks, then curl up with tea and a good book. For daytime errands, layer it with denim, a turtleneck, and ankle boots, and add the matching scarf for that extra flourish of texture. And when the mood turns whimsical, we love it worn over the matching Bohéme Slip Dress, a vintage belt, and lace-up boots — a rustic-meets-romantic look that feels like wandering through a garden under the stars.

Our Muse

+

The creative, the moon-gazer. Women who come alive when the world grows quiet, who gather ideas like blossoms under starry skies. Women who tend their dreams by the light of the moon. 

More Inspo

+

The luna moth has long been seen as a symbol of transformation and intuition — a night-dwelling creature drawn not to flame, but to the soft, steady glow of the moon. With its luminous wings and fleeting appearance (adults live only a few days), the luna moth is both rare and wondrous — like the spark of a new idea, or the hush of inspiration when it arrives in the dark. In Fleur de Lune, these delicate moths drift across the design as messengers of the imagination — guiding us to trust our inner compass, follow what glows, and honour the seasons of change that shape us. They remind us that creativity doesn’t always shout — sometimes, it whispers. And often, it comes when the world is still, and the stars are bright, and the garden is blooming under a silver sky.

Let the luna moth be a gentle invitation: to slow down, to dream, and to tend to the light inside you — especially when it flickers.

The Poem

The Night Orchard
by GennaRose Nethercott

Be careful—if you do not hold tight
to your lantern, here, winged things will take you:
saturniidae, the lobed kites of their bodies
aloft on moonbeams. They will drop you
in among plum baskets and fly starward,
for the moths have a job, see—
nocturnal psychopomps ferrying overripe fruit
into the afterlife. You mustn’t interrupt.
Here in the Night Orchard, flowers bloom
when no one is watching. Petal open
like an old oak trunk full of bridal silks.
Firefly and jaguar, black bat and civet—
nightbeasts are the company they keep.
In low light, eyesight fails, so you must rely
on perfumes: honeyed magnolia. Syrupy pear.
Follow, darling, the scent of a wasp’s wing
as it stirs the blackened sky. Follow the sound
of bells. Follow the calling of the owl. Don’t
you know? The darkest part of the garden
is home to the sweetest crop.
