Gudrun Sjödén’s new Spring Extra collection is filled with joyful hues

COLOUR IS A wonderful way to boost your mood – and that’s why Gudrun Sjödén has filled her new Spring Extra collection with joyful, vibrant shades that are guaranteed to lift the spirits.

Gudrun has used a colour palette that includes fresh, nature-inspired hues of green and blue, luscious fuchsia and rose, warming orange, and a soft yellow tone, known in India as ‘harda’, which uses a dye extracted from the myrobalan tree.

Layering pieces are a versatile addition to your spring wardrobe, and this collection is filled with easy-to-wear garments with clean silhouettes which will complement your existing wardrobe perfectly. Bringing together light and loose fabrics with more rustic styles, the collection includes flowing tunics and dresses, pretty yet practical jackets, chic cardigans, and on-trend trousers.

Designed for life

The collection features exquisite printed patterns inspired by spring blooms. Gudrun has been exploring the creative possibilities offered by high-tech digital printing, and the results are not only beautiful, but eco-friendly, too.

This method of fabric printing helps to minimises the use of dye and water, and so it ties in with the sustainability principle at the heart of this Scandinavian brand. From Gudrun’s initial watercolour sketches right through to the finished garments, environmental awareness runs through every fibre of the collection.

The hard-wearing, natural fabrics such as organic cotton, linen and lyocell are designed to have a long life span, so they’re not only good for you, they’re good for the planet, too.
