Bohemian Looks Inspired by Nature

As part of the People of Leisure mission, we create eco-conscious clothes that connect with the natural world. Our responsibly sourced fabrics and eco-friendly dyes help promote sustainable production while delivering a super-soft feel. With love for the outdoors, we've designed our clothes to reflect the beauty of simple minimalism and organic textures. Here's a look at a few naturally inspired pieces from our collection and the phenomena they're inspired by.

Icelandic Moss

Inspired by the unique properties of Icelandic moss, the spring moss cardigan is mineral-washed for softness and to create its dappled texture. Like the plummeting cliffs of the Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon in southeast Iceland, this cardigan comes with deep side pockets that are perfect for tucking your hands or carrying your smaller belongings. Pair yours with a simple tee and leggings or a flowy blouse and booties and layer with simple jewelry for a grounded, comfortable look.

 

Variegated Hostas

These sun-loving plants have elegant white edging that mimics the texture of the festival tie-dye peek-a-boo top. The top's open peek-a-boo shoulders and turtleneck make it a unique statement piece for your closet. Green tie-dye stripes create a playful vibe, while lightweight fabric allows for versatile wear and works well in transitional weather. Add weathered skinny jeans, a wide-brim hat, and ankle boots to pull together an outfit that's fit for a fall festival or evening concert.

Fig Tree Roots

The peek-a-boo biker long sleeve top may be fit for the highway, but its intricate open-twist back panel has its "roots" in the image of the fig tree. The smooth, twisting trunk that's characteristic of the fig is echoed in the shirt's criss-cross open back. Each piece in our collection is individually dyed, which is what give the top its uniquely mottled texture. Wear yours with jeans and a jacket to hit the road or walk the breezy beaches. 

Nature remains a talented designer—one that we look to often when designing the look and feel of our pieces. We develop each item with careful attention to texture, detail, shape, and fit to deliver the softest items that you can easily mix and match into your existing wardrobe. You can also build your capsule wardrobe from pieces in our collection that are comfortable and practical enough that you'll want to wear them again and again. Each piece can be quickly restyled with layering, accessories, and mixing.
