We really love that moment where all of the skills learned during the 3 days of Pause Floral Workshop comes together during set up of the editorial. Our students’ eyes light up when they take a step back and observe what they have accomplished together. Thinking about each flower and creating something with intention Nita, our beautiful model, brought life to the exquisite Stephen van Eeden gown. We could not stop staring at her, standing in the middle of this dreamy floral set up.
For our Pause July 2024 editorial we drew inspiration from the beautiful natural light streaming in from the glass windows and the high ceiling at The Venue. We used pops of peach and orange to create some life and vibrance in this blank canvas. We focused on hanging structures, growing posies and also loads of linen to set the stage. We discussed the backdrop structure and showed the students how to approached elevated installations when using flowers that would need a water source.
