HOW TO WORK THIS LOOK

■ More is more when it comes to this heavily embellished style, so don’t skimp on the details. There’s plenty of room for upcycling and revamping preloved items for a personalised touch. Try adding tassels and embroidery to your existing outdoor textiles and painting old furniture in colours to give it a new lease of life.

■ Make the brighter colours of this look pop by grounding an exuberant scheme with a dependable neutral tone. Whites will reflect sunshine to give a bright, Mediterranean look, while darker colours, like grey, create a cosier atmosphere for evening entertaining.

■ Bring a tropical vibe to paved areas with pots of sculptural foliage plants. Try out banana palm, fan palm and cordylines. You can even move houseplants, like Monstera, outdoors on warm summer days.
