Wild Lobelia - Reversible Jacket + Headband + Tote Bag set

…today, as you step quietly across a vast plateau above Smitswinkel Bay in the Cape of Good Hope, South Africa. Amongst a motley mat of scrubby plants clinging to the sandy soil, you pick a path across the plateau and a cluster of tiny, delicate flowers draped elegantly from threadlike stems of green comes into view. Their purple hue speaks vividly against the muted tones of the soil, as you bend down and carefully select a perfect specimen of ‘Lobelia Coronopifolia’ to press between the sepia pages of your journal…

This made-to-order high quality fully-reversible jacket features a mid-weight, buttery soft natural cotton/linen blend with distressed and frayed seams, printed with an over-sized 19th century botanical illustration by French botanist Charles Antoine Lemaire of 'Lobelia Coronopifolia' or 'Wild Lobelia', a tiny, delicate flower native to South Africa.

This unconventional, striking design will spark conversation, outlast fleeting trends, and remain a treasured wardrobe staple. Included with the jacket is a matching headband and reversible tote bag, allowing you to create multiple looks by styling the items in a variety of ways.

The matching Wild Lobelia dress and clutch are sold separately.
