I Heart Mr Morris x
But as a rule, it’s been because of his interiors..however..

I Heart Flower Power ! XXX
Sigh. So do I..particularly when the sun is shining! xxx
Classic is an over used word but valid in this case….fab pics…love a bit of old hippie! X
Festival Chic could learn a thing or two.. xxx
I love that Alice and Olive skirt! Floral is classic, and still chic so many years later
Perfect for a Thanks giving supper given the turkey creeping off the edge! Utterly priceless – I love it! xxx
Glorious prints!
I live just a spit away from Kelmscott House and I’ve been meaning to go and have a look at their library and collection of prints for ages. Must do it .
Lucky thing..get thee a horse and go!! xxx
A canter down Lower Mall, now there’s a thought. I wonder if it would be allowed?……
Only wearing vintage with a pre-raphaelite twist..
What fabulous photos and wouldn’t Mr Morris be so proud…
proud to see his iconic {textile/wallpaper} designs live on…
proud to know that his #1 wish came true re: his work…
that his print designs have become “art for all’~
How very true..his original factory was sited not far from here in Merton Abbey Mills..he will always have a special place in my heart xxx
Love seeing both the WM patterns and what other people have made with them! The books from his Kelmscott press are also full of visual inspiration, the kind of luxury that respects fine craftsmanship rather than ‘brand’.
He did have an incredible eye for design, proportion and colour. And thanks for tip..I will have to discover the kelmscott press book.. Xxxx
These photos are absolutely fantastic! Harrison’s blazer is to die – as is that Alice and Olive floral number. Such a cool rich earthy vibe.
I wish more men would dress like this again!! Xxx
Agree!
just stunning and amazing
Bring back beautiful hippies!! Xxx
