We recently had the pleasure of collaborating with the design-led portfolio of premium brands, Country Road Group. As a result, I am very excited to present CRG pieces that are versatile enough to traverse with you across city, countryside and coast. These exceptionally comfortable, breathable fabrics create fluid silhouettes inspired by the long shadows cast by our diaphanous summer sunlight. If you crave simple yet considered style, this high summer collection will satisfy it.
