There's just something undeniably happy about pastels. Even if your wardrobe runs dark and your aesthetic skews dramatic, you can't walk past a garden colored by soft blush, whisper-yellow, and hazy lavender without feeling a little lift.
They just glow quietly, radiating the kind of easy, unhurried optimism that makes you want to sit down in the garden and sip on something. Whether you're a perennial pastel devotee or a lifelong black-wearer who's never once reached for a mint green, the good vibes are still there.
Shown here is the Helga Shirt pattern made with three pastel ginghams from our Mini Gingham Edit featuring deadstock fabrics from an NYC designer. Above is the Romy Top + Dress, sewn in Azure Fronds, an impeccable cotton blend jersey knit crafted in Denmark.
