The Art of the Mix: How to Pair Delicate Florals with Lace & Eyelet
One of the secrets to a truly sophisticated, high-end look is the thoughtful art of mixing textures. While a beautiful print can stand on its own, pairing it with complementary fabrics and details creates an outfit that is rich, dimensional, and feels intentionally styled. It’s a way to add a layer of personal, curated elegance to your wardrobe.
Our Delicate Florals collection, with its romantic prints and exquisite details, is the perfect palette to explore this art. This guide will show you how to pair our beautiful florals with complementary textures like lace and eyelet for a look of modern romance.
Floral + Eyelet: The Ultimate Romantic Combination
Eyelet, with its delicate, patterned embroidery, is a natural partner for a floral print. The open, airy nature of the fabric has a timeless, romantic feel that beautifully harmonizes with the nature-inspired grace of a bloom.
Our Mixed Media Eyelet Peekaboo Midi Dress is a perfect example of how these two elements work in beautiful concert. The floral-patterned nature of the eyelet embroidery complements the overall romantic feel of the dress, creating a dimensional and exquisitely detailed look. It’s a texture that adds a touch of artisanal charm without overwhelming the silhouette.
Floral + Lace: A Delicate Duo
For a look that is the epitome of classic femininity, a touch of delicate lace is the perfect addition to a floral print. This pairing is timeless, elegant, and speaks to a soft, romantic sensibility.
The beauty of this combination is showcased in our Mini Floral Dress With Peek A Boo Lace. A subtle peek of delicate lace at the waist or neckline adds an extra layer of luxury and visual interest to the floral print. It makes the entire piece feel even more special and considered, as if it holds a beautiful secret.
Floral + A Solid Statement Piece
The most classic and powerful way to style any print is to ground it with a simple, solid-colored piece. This provides a resting place for the eye, which allows the beauty of the floral to be fully appreciated and take center stage.
To master this look, pair a flowing, printed piece like our Floral Tiered Maxi Skirt with a solid, but still beautifully detailed, top. A piece like our Square Neck Bubble Cap Sleeve Top in a simple, neutral color is a perfect choice. The clean, solid color of the top balances the playful print of the skirt, creating a look that is harmonious, polished, and effortlessly chic.
Mixing these delicate textures and prints is a beautiful way to create an outfit that is not just worn, but is thoughtfully composed. It’s a way to express your confident personal style, blending different elements to create a look that is rich, romantic, and uniquely you.
