You’ll find yourself mesmerised by this print.  At first glance it could be a tropical garden, but if you look carefully, Sarah (Miss Moresby) is doing so much more.  For me, the print is a celebration of the more innocuous sea life.  The small, floating life takes centre stage and is reimagined.  This Neon Sea is a riot of colour.  Seaweed is given colour, texture and life.  There are renditions of all manner of life, like sea anemones, which take on the beauty of a flower.  I can also perceive plankton, and perhaps the pearly shapes of algae.

Throughout the print you can see flowers, so you can ‘read’ the print as a bold ‘floral’ or ‘botanical’ or love the idea of the exploration of the deep.  Either way you’ll enjoy the vibrant colours on this lavender background.  The colour palette includes orange, pinks, blues, purples, greens, aqua, yellows, tan, black and white. 

It's perfect for tops|blouses|shirts, dresses, loose pants, robes etc.

Cloth Care:

While cotton can generally be machine washed and tumble dried without any problem, this is a lightweight and delicate fabric, so take more care of the cloth/garment, so hand wash or and use a short / delicate cycle. Wash colours separately. The finished garment will last longer and look better if it is shaken out when wet and placed on a hanger to dry. Tumble drying will shorten the life of the garment, and potentially damage the double gauze Do Not Tumble Dry. To prevent fading, wash inside out and dry in the shade. Cotton needs a warm to hot iron. Conduct a spot test. Cotton is dry cleanable.
