This high-contrast bloom of fuchsia and pale gold is absolutely unforgettable! Prized for their spectacular appearances, "mums" are the perfect fall-blooming plant whose showy flowers appear in late summer and continue into the fall, creating dense mats of color.

sarabande
|
|
|
A sarabande is a slow and stately dance in triple meter, typically associated with Baroque music. It is often performed as a part of a suite, and is known for its solemn and meditative qualities. It evokes a sense of timelessness and transcendence, as well as its intricate and graceful choreography.
Similarly, this silk taffeta fabric comprised of dark gold and yellow olive is an exquisite representation of those same contemplative, introspective qualities. Dark gold is regal, luxurious, and symbolizes wealth and prosperity, while yellow olive is a muted, earthy color that evokes a sense of natural beauty and harmony. Together, these exotic colors create a refined, understated fabric that communicates complex, nuanced emotions, much like a sarabande.
