Floral Fixation

As we are icily reminded in The Devil Wears Prada, florals for spring are hardly groundbreaking. Yet designers perennially turn to flowers for inspiration, playing off their suggestion of growth and new beginnings. This season, a fresh crop of blossom-inspired tones and graphics prove that making an Easter-ly statement doesn't have to mean cranking up the volume, '70s-style. Whether you're slipping into subtly floral-printed sneakers by Bottega Veneta or rocking an elegant full floral suit by Brioni, now's the time to leap into the brush and show your mettle with some petal.
