To shoot the Spring 2016 lookbook, we headed down to Barbados — the Fustic House, to be exact, an 18th-century estate restored by legendary designer Oliver Messel in the Seventies. There are breathtaking views of the Caribbean, exotic gardens and a koi-filled lotus lake — not to mention a renowned lagoon-like pool carved from coral stone. As for that beautifully soft shade of sage green spotted everywhere, from the woodwork to the awnings, it’s now trademarked Messel Green.
