As the chill of winter lingers with sporadic reminders of its persistence, the de Soleil collection emerges as a beacon of spring for us at FLAX. This collection brings a soft, wearable color palette that serves as a breath of fresh air amidst the darker neutrals we've been wrapped in through the colder months.
This year, we introduced a unique hue called Petrol—a subtle yet striking blue-green that suits everyone. It redefines what we consider neutral, adding a vibrant splash without overwhelming the senses. Petrol, along with dark neutrals like Nine Iron and lighter tones like Platinum and White, ensures that wherever you are in the world, de Soleil offers a fresh perspective as soon as it arrives.
To balance the collection’s color story, we’ve infused a mix of textures and finishes. A key addition is our light, airy waffle-textured linen, which provides a beautiful drape and a sweater-like appeal that feels just right for the transition into warmer weather. This texture play is not just about aesthetics—it’s about offering versatile, comfortable options that cater to everyone, with a mix of two neutrals (Castlerock and Oatmeal) and two colors (Celery and Petal).
The de Soleil collection artfully blends traditional elements with contemporary design, infusing each piece with both tailored sophistication and a whimsical flow. Our focus on comfort and adaptability shines through each unique design, offering something special for everyone, regardless of size or style preference.
