This month, we celebrate the ethereal beauty of the landscape that drew impressionist artists to Lamorna Cove. Tucked away on a beautiful stretch of the Penwith coastline in West Cornwall, Lamorna became home to a community of creatives. Enchanted by the silvery light of this hidden gem, their outdoor paintings capture serene coastal scenes and a sense of relaxed freedom. 

We’ve taken the carefree feeling from their romantic compositions and let it flow through our designs. Capturing the ripples of sun warmed water and cliffside wildflowers on soft, sustainable fabrics and timeless silhouettes.  

It comes together in a fresh nautical palette that has been designed to be loved and worn for years to come.

Lamorna shapes

Our in-house artists used loose brushstrokes and pointillist patterns to capture the essence of Lamorna Cove. From delicate florals floating through water to layered shapes representing each part of the landscape, our latest prints are given movement on soft, flowing fabrics and structured styles.

Lightweight linen

Naturally breathable linen has been garment-dyed in joyful sandy yellows and Cornish sea blues. Giving the fabric a richly textured colour that gets better with age as it becomes woven with sunlit memories.
