The Skinny laMinx Paradise is Here collection was put together by the South African artist after a trip taken to Tokyo. Otherwise known as Heather Moore, the designer was inspired by the many plants that she found in urban spaces. As such, she put together prints via fabrics featuring leaves and wild green shapes.
According to laMix, the infusion of plants within concrete spaces reminds city dwellers that there is much more to metropolitan regions than business transactions, meetings and schedules. Instead, live flora speaks to the natural environment and the cycle of life.
Whether or not one chooses to incorporate these items within crowded urban spots, their beauty can nonetheless be appreciated no matter the local, hence the versatility of Paradise is Here.
