It’s great to discover new names in fashion you haven’t heard of, and if you haven’t yet heard of Arnhem, it’s definitely worth checking out.
Here’s what to know about this fashion line, infused with a large dose of creativity, color and bohemian flair:
Born into a gypsy lifestyle of color and beauty, flower child Arnhem Bickley spent her early years traveling around Australia and the world with her hippy parents. Drifting through different communities and festivals and living in teepees with no electricity or running water, a heightened sense of creativity emerged in young Arnhem, who began sewing clothes for her dolls at the age of four.
The bohemian spirit flows into every piece of Arnhem clothing. Her range is characterized by distinctive, custom signature prints of vintage-inspired floral, tribal and earthy designs, heavily influenced by the wilderness and beauty of her home in Byron Bay.
Arnhem creates elegant pieces with an effortlessly feminine yet playful style. All Arnhem Clothing has that one off feel about it, with nothing mass-produced. Arnhem Clothing has quickly grown to become one of Byron Bay’s iconic fashion labels.
The clothes really are stunning and one-of-a-kind. A few of our favorites available on the website (www.arnhem.co/new/) include the following:
Leaping Water Caftan in Off White with Gold: Nothing says effortlessly chic more than a beautifully-made caftan. It’s such a simple piece of clothing that you can wear when the weather is warm and you’re going to look carefree with a bit of style thrown in. This caftan can be worn on its own as a dress, or you can put it with a pair of jeans or leggings as a blouse in the colder weather. If features hand-embroidered detailing around the cuffs and neckline and the silhouette is soft and floating.
Bombay Top Mumbai: This blouse brings together Eastern detailing in the form of a floating blouse made from a soft woven fabric. It’s created with Arnhmem’s signature Mumbai print and features a gathered waist, relaxed sleeves and lace-up and tassel detailing.
Harmony Skirt Liberty: This maxi skirt is an amazing piece of clothing that you’ll want as a mainstay in your warm weather wardrobe. It’s flattering, beautiful and delicate, all at the same time. This mermaid-style skirt fits snugly around the hips and waist and features a size zip and side split that gives you a hint of sexiness. It’s created from a soft rayon fabric and is in the signature Arnhem Liberty print full of a combination of blues and pinks.
Hope Mini Dress in Black: This mini dress is lightweight and features crochet detailing along the front and a tie halter neck. It’s made from a combination of woven rayon along with the crotched cotton and it’s short and summery. It makes a great chic piece for any warm-weather wardrobe, although it should be noted that it’s ultra-short.
We love Arnhem for so many reasons—namely the sense of creativity and uniqueness each of the pieces of clothing have. You can just feel yourself being transported to an Australian beach when you look at these stunning items.
