Contemporary British Style

Jane Packer was one of Britain’s foremost floral artists. Jane was renowned for her simple yet stunning designs, epitomized by fresh, unpretentious use of flowers and materials. From humble beginnings in a small shop in the West End of London, Jane played a key part in changing the view of flower design forever by deconstructing the old methods of flower arranging and approaching the subject with an eye to art, fashion and design. Interest in her unique flower philosophy led to the opening of the first JANE PACKER Flower school in 1990. Stores and schools followed in Tokyo, Korea & Hong Kong. The Middle East and of course New York, earning plaudits and accolades, too varied to mention.
