My friends,
Spring is upon us, and the energy of the new season is coming. I am looking forward to that so much!
I decided to do something really special to kick off this new 2021 season – a Rites of Spring Mieko Mintz Trunk Show.
You all know I am a huge admirer of Mieko, her artistry and creativity, the quality and beauty of the pieces she creates. Mieko is trained in the classic art of couture, making custom clothing in the French manner. But as masters do, Mieko has taken her training to a new level by working with kantha - repurposing beautiful saris - to create clothing that is incredibly comfortable, wearable, and also exquisite.
The process Mieko uses to create these garments has provided training and work to hundreds of skilled seamstresses in India. Each of these women is working with a unique combination of fabric and color and design, each created by Mieko to make a one-of-a-kind garment, a garment unlike any made by anyone else, anywhere else in the world.
This trunk show will include the pieces shown below. Because every single Mieko is reversible, the two images you see are the inside and outside of each piece. For the period of this show, April 16 – May 3, Wildflowers is offering a 15% discount off the price that is listed.
You can call for a private appointment or come into the shop between 11 and 4 on Saturday and Sunday to see and try on these amazing Miekos. And if you can’t come, give me a call at (609) 575-7507, we can chat about the pieces you are interested in maybe even FaceTime if you'd like, and I can ship them to you on approval.
I cannot tell you how excited I am to be able to offer these beautiful things to you.
I look forward to seeing everyone soon!
Fondly,
