In France, May 1st is marked by La Fête du Muguet, a cherished tradition in which sprigs of lily of the valley are gifted to loved ones as a symbol of good luck, happiness, and the arrival of spring.⁠ ⁠ The custom is said to date back to King Charles IX, who received the flower in 1561 and chose to offer it to the ladies of his court each spring - a gesture that evolved into a national tradition of hand-tied bouquets exchanged for prosperity and good fortune.⁠ ⁠ In celebration, we’re delighted to share our Lily of the Valley design - a collaboration featuring designer Alice Edward's @alice.j.edwards @memo.press intricate floral illustration, translated onto our signature pure mulberry silk bedlinen. ⁠ ⁠ From all of us here at Gingerlily London, we wish you a joyful Fête du Muguet x ⁠ ⁠ Styling: @katefrench_creative⁠ Photography: @carolynbarberphotography⁠ __⁠ ⁠⁠⁠#silk #silkbedding #silkbedlinen #memopress #bedding #bedlinen #bed #bedroom #bedroomdecor #bedroomdesign #bedroominspo #bedroominspiration #bedroomgoals #bedroomideas #bedroomstyling #bedroominterior #home #homedecor #decor #homedesign #interior #interiors #interiordesign #interiorstyle #luxury #GingerlilyLondon #GingerlilySilk #sustainablesilk
