Archaeolepis (n) - the earliest known ancestor of butterflies and moths.
This print is inspired by antiquarian moth collections - taking care to record and preserve everything from giant Death's Head moths to the common peppered moth, this print features over one hundred hand-drawn pencil moths on a textured watercolour ground, with a bright chartreuse border. The design is digitally printed onto a luxurious lightweight silk satin to capture the luminous transparency of their delicate wings.
The Busy Lizzie Scarf is the ultimate style classic, as made famous by Audrey Hepburn and worn to this day by the Queen herself.
