Style on Sunday: Pretty prints to put a spring in your step

Put a spring in your step with the season’s prettiest perennial print trend.

Whether you fancy tulips and roses or daisies and peonies, flowers of of all kinds proved another big hit with designers on the major runways.

It is understood that botanical printed fabrics originated in the East where chrysanthemums and peonies, among others, were printed with bird motifs and garden landscapes on silk Kimono fabrics.

As early as the 17th century garden blossoms were seen on lace fabrics and by the 1920s, Liberty London had created the iconic floral print fabric which they are still known for today.
