Rose Renaissance: The Resurgence of Floral Fashion

While we all know that in the ever-evolving world of fashion, trends come and go like the passing of the seasons, however some elements transcend time and eternally return to our style radars year after year. This perennial favourite? The rose.

July 4, 2024

Just like Beyonce, roses are experiencing a full-blown renaissance and here at MESHKI HQ we are here for it. From runways to red carpets, this iconic flower has cast a spell on the fashion world (us included). 

Is it because they evoke feelings of old-world tradition and timeless romance? Or is it because they’re so versatile to dress down and up? We love the rose trend for both those reasons and here are a few ways we’ve incorporated it into our wardrobes.

On Print

The iconic rose print — nothing else inspires such a sense of romanticism than a delicate bloom on soft knit fabrication. We have opted to inject that feminine floral energy as an embroidered print onto some of our classic styles such as the Tallulah Rose Knit Top and matching Tallulah Rose Knit Mini Skirt.

Those searching to try a more elevated take on the rose trend will love our Aphrodite Strapless Mesh Dress which incorporates a bold rose print set against a soft mesh fabrication. 

However, if you’re looking to trial the trend without going all-in, the Lala Rose Earrings is an ideal piece for dressing up a casual look.

Add A Little Appliqué 

What we love about this trend is that rose details can be just that — details. This year we saw miniature rose embellishments added to the neckline, the shoulders, and on halter straps.

That’s why we created our Adeline Rose Halter Top, which blends the easy-to-style benefits of a classic halter top but elevated with the addition of a rose along the neckline. Our Elenora Rose Gown is a more subdued take on the trend, with soft rose appliques that extend down the length of the backline. 

Bandeau It

Buy yourself flowers. That’s literally the brief when it comes to taking on the rose trend and our Samantha Rose Denim Bandeau is the embodiment of that ethos, with a cluster of fabric roses adorning the neckline of this denim bandeau. A softer take on this style comes in the Noreen Rose Contrast Crochet Bikini Top, which afford the same shoulder-celebrating style but with an eye-catching contrast rose to take on vacation.

Keep It Delicate

Just because you love roses, doesn’t mean you want to wear them all over you. We get it. Which is why our Kiki Off Shoulder Knit Rose Maxi Dress provides the perfect ‘entry-level’ item for this trend. However, having delicate rose embellishments doesn’t mean your outfit needs to be any less show stopping. For instance, our Marion Rose Halter Maxi Dress features a train of roses down the back elevating a simple bodycon silhouette.
