You’re bound to feel pretty fly whenever you wear Mallory! Crafted from our favourite sustainable fabric with LENZING ECOVERO viscose fibres in an all-over floral and fauna print inspired by the NHM’s archives on a terracotta background, Mallory features a functional button-through front with a classic collar, long sleeves with shirred detail on the cuffs, pleating detail at the bust with a shaped yoke, an elasticated panel at the back to add shape, slant pockets at the hips, and a maxi-length skirt.

At a time when insects were believed to magically appear, known as ‘spontaneous generation’, talented artist Maria Sibylla Merian (1647-1717) was one of the first to closely observe and document the process of metamorphosis. Embarking on the first recorded expedition undertaken solely for the purpose of scientific research, her stunning and meticulous illustrations revolutionised the scientific community’s understanding of the life cycle of insects and their connection with their food plants.
