Created by well known French Art Nouveau designer, R. Beauclair, in approximately 1900, the Ianthe design was redrawn by David Haward’s Studio and is a timeless and a true reflection of Liberty’s heritage. Ianthe is Greek for purple or violet flowers, suggesting that the flowers in the design may have originally been drawn from violets.
This colorway is bright, with shades of red, navy, royal blue and olive green. The bodice is one shouldered with a cluster of dark red beads to add sparkle. The voluminous skirt is given added fullness with the addition of dark red tulle.
