We ask the style world’s preeminent talents to mine their inspirations and curate their world through style. Sydney-born and now Berlin-based nature enthusiast and fashion’s favourite florist, Ruby Barber, of Studio Mary Lennox, shares hers.

1. “The most beautiful trip I have taken is to [Italy’s] Lake Como in April. The wisteria, camellias and rhododendrons are in full bloom. There is something so enchanting about the lake and the mountains dripping with colourful flowers. It is a sensory overload. One of my favourite holidays last year was [Spain’s] Menorca in September. The weather was perfect, the beaches were empty and there was so much untouched nature.”

2. “I dream about Ricardo Bofill’s La Fábrica regularly. If I could live anywhere in the world, it would be there.”

3. “My favourite pieces in my wardrobe are my Alaïa shirt-dress and my Sophie Buhai everyday hoops. For something special I love the splendour of Simone Rocha or the elegance of The Row.”

4. “Right now I’m reading the Neapolitan novels by author Elena Ferrante. The series was a birthday gift and it has been such a pleasure reading them.”

5. “Wes Anderson’s films for the colours and costumes. The Grand Budapest Hotel and

The Royal Tenenbaums serve as palette inspiration regularly for my work. I’m also a sucker for an iconic setting. I love old James Bond movies for the filming locations, and I can’t go past The Talented

Mr. Ripley for stunning spots in Italy.” 6. “I love the scent of summer by the coast in Europe. Herbs mixed with citrus and salt water are particularly evocative. Buly 1803’s Campagne d’Italie candle smells almost as good as the real thing.”

7. “The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett is my childhood favourite book and [the main character is] the namesake of my business, Studio Mary Lennox. I love the enchantment of spaces where nature has taken over.”
