Butterflies are all the rage for Spring.

Flora and fauna, and the garden theme are much-favoured for fashion inspiration this Spring, but it's the butterflies that are causing all the rage.

The fashion store Fenwick (on Bond Street in London) is launching a Beauty in Wonderland promotion on Monday March 17 until 30, with a garden setting of blooms, butterflies and bees to showcase their event, but setting my heart aflutter recently was the Butterfly in the Glasshouse event at RHS Wisley Garden  in Surrey recently where visitors could experience exotic butterflies flitting and floating among tropical plants.

At Swarovski, the Austrian house for producing crystals for fashion and accessories, crystal beads in the shape of a butterfly are among the newly launched shapes for Spring Summer 2015.

Here are a few examples of how with the use of the butterfly-shaped crystals with other shapes, a designer at Swarovski has created geometric decorations to add a new dimension of luxe to denim shirts and everyday T-shirts.
