Nothing beats natural: Made in the shade

November 8, 2022 by Metropol No Comments

With so much happening on the social calendar, there is no more pleasing sight than beautiful clothes hanging in the wardrobe.

As summer temperatures soar, natural fibres, such as silk, cotton, and linen keep bodies cool and help skin to breathe.

Made in the Shade showcases the finest natural fibred garments from leading international and New Zealand brands.

Italian labels Naturals, Momento, and Simply Linen exhibits shift tunics in large polka dot prints, embroidered tops, and two-piece dress/coat ensembles with exquisite lacework detail. Gorgeous wedding attire for all ages.

Anne Mardell co-ordinates linens and cottons in plains and patterns, with innumerable mix-and-match combinations of trousers, blouses, t-shirts, and jackets.

Bittermoon celebrates the season in vivid prints, such as the Carly dress flaunting everything from butterflies, hibiscus, and peonies to tiger stripes splashed amidst jungle flora.

Optimum knitwear’s heavenly hues bring versatility. For casual chic, pair with gingham pants from Up and bring on the hampers and champers.

For owner Alison Donne, the curating process has always been about quality fabrics and timeless design.
“That has always been the business focus and it’s what my customers love, knowing that here they will find distinctive clothes that make them feel on top of the world.”
