A mainstay of the Palm Beach and Hamptons fashion set, Figue dresses, kaftans, and skirts are instantly recognizable for their colorful patterns and stunning embroidery. Additionally, the line offers a matching array of linens, translating a jetsetter-chic palette and exuberant patterns into tablecloths, napkins, and placemats.
Conjured by industry veteran Liz Lange, the collection is an extension of the designer’s own maximalist taste, which is on vivacious display in her homes, including her renovation of the iconic Grey Gardens estate in East Hampton.
Here, the celebrated aesthete shares the poppy pieces on her holiday shopping list.
