flower print history
As far back as the 12th century, wherein the Chinese people embroidered their clothing with flowers and beautiful natural sceneries. They wove these into rich fabrics such as silk or incorporated them in detailed embroideries. Floral motifs in China included peony, lotus, and carnations.

The late '60s and early '70s saw the rise of flower power as a symbol of non-violence, peace and love. Rocking blooming head pieces and floral prints, the style is now popular for summer festivals and bohemian-chic outfits.

Many people are familiar with the “Flower Power” movement and hippie style of the 1960s, as this was a hugely memorable decade for fashion. In the '60s, many designers were influenced by pop art, leading them to create bright, vibrant clothing with bold patterns.
