“Anyone can grow into something beautiful.”
- Vanessa Diffenbaugh, The Language of Flowers
This season, fashion blooms in the silent poetry of petals—soft as a sonnet, bold as a wildflower breaking free from the frost. Like love notes tucked into bouquets, these looks carry their own hidden messages. A dress blushes like a peony in full bloom, a billowing sleeve flirts like a daisy in the breeze, and deep emeralds and violets add a bit of mystery. We hope these looks inspire you to weave a little whimsy into your wardrobe, buy local this spring and to let this season be your invitation to bloom boldly, beautifully, and entirely as you.

Special thanks to Amy Streeter for her kindness and hospitality!
Hello! My name is Cleo and I had so much fun styling the 2025 Spring Fashion shoot. Getting to do this at Susan’s Florist was such a bonus. Amy Streeter did a magnificent job adorning this shoot with the beautiful flowers her shop has to offer.
There are certain flowers that survive through the cold months. They have deep seated roots that anchor them in and protect them from the frost. They even go dormant to reserve their energy to bloom big in spring. The VOICE-TRIBUNE’s Spring Fashion Shoot felt like an ode to this phenomena. It’s natural for humans to go through a bit of a hibernation process when it’s cold, and it’s healthy to let ourselves do so. Sometimes that can feel difficult as life is very busy - but it’s okay to rest. It’s funny and ironic that resting is sometimes the most productive activity you can do! Spring is such a magical time. A time of waking back up and blooming again even bigger and more vibrant than ever before. Here’s to getting through the cold hibernation months and blooming together as the sun gets closer.
Major shout out to Susan’s Florist, Rodeo Drive, Rodes, Sassy Fox, and Mamili Boutique and their teams for helping to make the styles in our Spring Fashion Shoot magical. Matt Johnson and Antonio Pantoja did such a wonderful job capturing these photos. Working with the entire team at the VOICE-TRIBUNE is always such a fun and enriching experience. Thank you to Amelia for this amazing opportunity.
