People Tree dress x V&A Collaboration

You may have seen from my instagram the other day me sharing a sneak peek of this shoot. A People Tree x V&A Collaboration I was chuffed to get my hands of a piece of what will surely be a sought after range! It’s such a beautiful organic cotton dress.

Me and my pal Lauren went on a stroll around one of my favourite areas of Bristol, Park Row and The Christmas Steps. I needed to pick up some flowers and a gift for Wilf’s teacher as an end of year gift so we popped into Les Fleurs (which is just the loveliest little florist with the most helpful owner!). The next day Wilf proudly marched into school holding them all all the teachers who spotted him on way exclaimed about what a beautiful bouquet it was. It also doubled as a pretty good outfit prop, win win  😉

Afterwards I picked up a candle from Osmology as a gift which could quickly become a bit of a habit, ALL the most gorgeous smelling candles.

Anyway, back to the collection!

I’m wearing the Tulip Print gathered dress which feels so 1940’s. The print also comes in a jumpsuit, ruffle skirt and frill top. It’s a higher price point but I feel like they are those special items that you’ll keep forever and pass down. One of those dresses that has a story and makes me people comment (and we had a lot of people comment that day!). At the moment I won’t be able to wear it that much as I can’t breastfeed in it of course but other than that I think it would be a pretty comfy dress for general mum life! It’s so loose and comfortable but still feels like it keeps a tailored and flattering cut.

Don’t forget you can get 15% off at People Tree full priced items with TLQ15 and 10% off sale items with TLQSALE10

What do you think of the collection? Are you a fan of the V&A and this floral design?
