Grow. Open up. Stand out.

simple but necessary characteristics if you want to be bold and colorful, but in particular, if you want to be like a flower. Flowers are meant to attract and appeal, to draw attention amongst a crowd, and print and pattern that incorporates flowers are created with the same intent. “Fashion floral” is a common term in this industry because floral patterns are inherently fashionable, i.e. they are not subtle or mundane.

So basically... be like the flowers and their pattern counterparts. grow, open up, stand out - and for goodness sakes, never be boring!
