When Green with Glamour wrote in today wishing us sunshine & flowers in bloom, I became delightfully curious about their Spring offerings. I fell for this gorgeous sundress. It is an unusual and interesting piece as the print was painted by elephants! It’s the brilliant result of an “uplifting & artistic collaboration” between the designers of Prophetik and the AEACP (Asian Elephant Art Conservation Project).

The goal of these garments is to raise funds for an elephant sanctuary in Thailand for these incredible creatures. For more on these darling dresses check out Green with Glamour.
