The Fairytale Feminity of Fall

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, the haute couture fall fashion shows presented onlookers with a sense of fantasy, whimsy and imaginary escapism. From Jack and the Beanstalk and Goldilocks at Chanel to Irish Folklore at Simone Rocha, fairytales seem to be everywhere in fashion right now.

Our Autumn floral collection Moonlight Sonata takes inspiration from the whimsical and enchanted designs, famously headlined by Matthieu Blazy’s debut Chanel Haute Couture Fall 2026 collection. Arrangements are delicate and dreamlike, mirroring the fairytale, femininity of the collections. Think soft morning mists, golden light filtering through amber leaves, and quiet, serene natural landscapes.

Moonlight Sonata

Composed by Beethoven in 1802, Moonlight Sonata was originally named, Sonata Quasi Una Fantasia, meaning A Sonet in the Manner of Fantasy.

Our florals are arranged in a whimsical palette of blush pinks, tangerine, gold and mauve all brought together with our most beloved seasonal stems such as Dahlia, Cala Lily, Blushing Bride, Chinese Lantern, Gerbera, Asparagus and Eustoma. 

We have partnered with the Mandarin Oriental for our mooncake hamper.  Presented in an elegant reusable box, the six signature, velvety Mini Egg Custard Mooncakes celebrate the spirit of reunion.  Inspired by the warm glow of a lantern, the intricately crafted box serves as a timeless keepsake that illuminates the Mid-Autumn season.

Sourced from 100-year-old trees, Yunnan Moonlight White Tea consists of a silvery bud with a dark leaf, reminiscent of a crescent moon in the night sky. This tea is pressed into a chocolate-shaped bar for easy brewing. Just break off a square, brew it in hot water and enjoy!

Floral & Vase Pairings

We believe that vessels are as important as florals because the container dictates the structural mechanics, visual balance, and emotional mood of the entire design. Like a fine frame around a museum painting, a well-chosen vessel transforms simple stems into a cohesive work of art while keeping the flowers hydrated and secure. 

For autumn 2026, our new capsule collection from Marloe Marloe, features Australian ceramicist Marloe Morgan's artisinal designs.  We love her considered, deep apreciation of the craft.  The beautiful textures, feminine forms and understated pigments.  The considered use of raw materials and packaging.  But most importantly, how the vessels showcase florals and botanicals.

The Moonlight Sonata Collection is available in store at Lane Crawford, Pacific Place.
