While reading Sanskrit literature may not be exactly what we had in mind, we’re so ready to wear Hindu-inspired Vancouver label Lav & Kush, named after Lord Rama and earth mother Sita’s royal twins.

Sweet and sustainable, the colours of India are blended into the collection of soft and airy eco-friendly fabrics. Find a great range of casual dresses adorned with sweet touches, like ruffles, in flattering feminine silhouettes.

Perfect for a night out, a picnic on the beach, or a stroll around town, try the bright cobalt blue v-neck dress with gathers and ruffles, or the beautiful raspberry strapless maxi-dress. Prices range from $46 to $180. For more information, visit www.lavandkush.com .
