Flower Power
In-your-face flora and fauna were big on runways this spring: 3-D toucans, oversized butterflies and at John Galliano, poppies bigger than the models themselves. Both the flower and its namesake color — a bright orange-red, are very now. A simple way to bring it home? A bunch of the cheerful blooms in a clear vase. Or make a more lasting statement with flower prints and patterns on everything from ceramics to chairs.
