Inspired by our happy time in Thornybush, this print is made up of a few of the beautiful things that we were surrounded by! Designed in collaboration with Sarch Designs, the different elements were hand- or digitally-drawn and put together to make up this print, which celebrates all the things we loved about the bush.
We hope you enjoy it!
ABOUT
JULIA, founded in 2014 by Julia Buchanan, started off as a swimwear brand, inspired by Cape Town and it's surrounds. Over the years, the brand has developed into a collaborative space that aims to celebrate artists and individuals within the creative ecosystem in our country.
In 2019 JULIA launched the Creatives' Collection, and has more recently become home to the In Conversation Series. This August JULIA will launch a collaborative collection with Pick 'n Pay Clothing, inspired by our local landscape and the powerful women that in our country.
Pick 'n Pay Clothing x JULIA
There has been a growing trend to support local clothes designers, with customers increasingly seeking clothing made in South Africa. Pick n Pay Clothing has heeded this call by launching collaboration with young local designers.
My first Pick n Pay Clothing x JULIA range celebrated florals and femininity, and this year, customers can expect a carefully hand-drawn signature floral print made up of white poppy flowers. The 2021 Pick n Pay Clothing x JULIA collection has been designed for comfort and class and includes seven items: a long and short jumpsuit, shorts, a tiered dress, a drop shoulder dress, a kaftan, and bikini set.
CREATIVES' COLLECTION
Creative's Collection is a series of swimsuits exclusively designed for JULIA by a group of handpicked local artists, illustrators and creative individuals.
Each season a new set of artists are selected and together a limited edition range of items is created, boasting unique designs inspired by the vibrant and diverse city that we live in.
