What We're Wearing To The Chelsea Flower Show

What We're Wearing To The Chelsea Flower Show

The worlds of style and gardening rarely share beds, but when they do, it's a heady affair that takes place annually at the Chelsea Flower Show! Taking place within the historic grounds of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, the Chelsea Flower continues to captivate the senses and inspire the soul, and that's just the people watching! Since its inception in 1913, this illustrious event, curated by the esteemed Royal Horticultural Society, has blossomed into a quintessential celebration of horticultural artistry and innovation.

This year, the annual five-day extravaganza begins on 19 May, running until the 23rd, showcasing the pinnacle of gardening prowess with an array of meticulously crafted exhibits, each a testament to the boundless creativity and ingenuity of its designers. Amidst the grandeur of the show gardens, artisanal creations bloom with intimate charm and distinctive themes. From quaint cottage gardens to avant-garde installations, each artisan garden offers a glimpse into the diverse tapestry of gardening styles and philosophies.

Moreover, the week will be a chance for socialising, hopefully under the warm gaze of sunshine. The King and Queen are scheduled to make an appearance on the Monday evening before public opening, also. Hence, why it's vitally important to get into the spirit of the Chelsea Flower Show and dress accordingly, with bold colours for gents and floral patterns to the fore for ladies, which is essentially our modus operandi at Favourbrook!

Linen suits are an excellent option for gents, especially in soft pastel tones to complement some of the colours of the flora, whereas for ladies our silk and linen summer silhouettes are just the ticket,: from flower print dresses to swooshing silk coats bursting with colours, these garments will have the cameras trained on you throughout the week! To hell with the heliotropes and Hydrangeas, you're the one in bloom!
