This button-up vest draws inspiration from the vibrant beauty of spring blooms, capturing the joyful surprise of discovering clusters of small white flowers during a walk, framed by the bold colours of a sunny day. The shoulder straps are adorned with delicate flower-centred granny squares in vibrant shades, while the body features geometric lace stitching in a light neutral hue, creating a flowing and airy fabric perfect for warmer days.
