Queen Gilda shares with us her beautiful Blyton – inspried new collection RÊVASSEUR, which translates to Daydreamer…

“gilda was about 4 when her mother first bought her her first enid blyton book. this started gilda’s love affair with enid blyton and her wonderful tales, and in particular, the magic faraway tree series. the books brought her into an imaginary world filled with pixies and gnomes, flustered golliwogs, and talking rabbits; into the enchanted wood, up the magic faraway tree, gobbling pop biscuits and google buns, into the land of take-what-you-want and do-as-you-please, and down moonface’s slippery-slide.

the inspiration is expressed through a variety of strong silhouettes, a great mixture of textures and prints, as well as multiple pattern manipulations and fabric treatments. this collection is an exploration of a memory of gilda’s childhood, and her continual imagination of a world of colour, fun, and make-believe.”

Number 8 & number 6, Ballad faves! Kinda want the police hat too!
