Calling all lilies and pansies and blossoms galore —
As springtime spills its nectar over your radiant cheeks, we’re calling in a night of floral abandon. The air is thick with scent and dreams as we pull the curtain on a night of true celestial delirium. A parade of petals, if you will — FULL BLOOM is here, and you better be the bloom.
Consider this your invitation to step into a garden where wild indulgence wears a velvet glove and pleasure blooms in a bath of light and sound. We’re celebrating the cut, the graft, the flourish. You, darling, are the sparkle that leaves a trail.
Expect to wear your fire like a crown and your stems as tall as your dreams. This shan’t be a whispered moment in a silent room, honey—it’s a full-on frenzy in the garden of delight.
We’re calling in euphoria. We’re rejoicing in our bounty. It’s giving fragrances on the edge of reason. The dark clouds on the horizon can’t rain on our parade if we paint a riot of color that could break the spectrum. Save me a dance under the moonlight?
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR? HOW CAN I LOCK IN ON THE VIBE? HERE’S A MOOD BOARD TO SHINE IN OUR FOUNTAIN OF JOY:
The rose petals from Sasha Velour’s wig; Can tulips grow on Mars? Botanical purrs; Welcome to the stage, Venus Fly Trap; Rose-colored glasses (only for the brave); The May Queen, King, and Jester; “What Would Narcissus Do?”; Francis the ladybug from A Bug’s Life; Overalls and a toothpick (woof); Pink goes WELL with green; Do birds of paradise flock together?; Dior 2012 haute couture; Lily-Rose in her vampirical garden; He loves me, he loves me not; Garden trade; La Isla Bonita; The grass is greener when it’s freshly mowed; Dirt-colored acrylics; We were all rooting for you!; What in carnation?; Buckin’ (like a mechanical bull); “How to Grow Your Own Emotional Fertilizer”; Florals for Spring (groundbreaking); Georgette of the Jungle; Painting the roses red (for the Queen of Hearts, of course)
