Meet ever-stylish mother and grandmother, Rosie Wall. Rosie and Andrew share a love of "contemporary art and design, which has taken us through a wonderful world together." We adored photographing her with her son Andrew, and her "besties" Teddy and Romeo, all dressed in Elle & Riley classic black whilst Rosie's accentuates in cobalt blue in our new Luxe Mock Neck. As Mother's Day quickly approaches, Rosie says "my beautiful boys always treat me on Mother’s Day. This Mother’s Day we are starting with a fabulous breakfast together at Daphnes on Ponsonby Road." Read Rosie's Q&A below.Â
How would you describe your mother-son bond with each other?
We share a love of contemporary art and design, which has taken us through a wonderful world together. Whether it be the Biennale, Art Basel or some obscure exhibition in Paris, I couldn’t have a more caring and entertaining travel companion or more knowledgeable art critic than Andrew. It’s just a joy every day.
Rosie - How do you think the delicate nature of cashmere reflects the gentle strength and resilience of mothers?
Cashmere offers a soft cosy comfort beyond any other yarn; yet has the utmost strength and resilience in the same way that mothers do with their children throughout their lives.
Rosie - you are a grandmother to simply gorgeous grandchildren. What is your favourite way to make your grandkids feel comforted and cared for?
I love each of them to have a sleepover on their own at my place so that we can share stories and secrets, go on fun adventures with the dogs, and I can cook their favourite dinner and have morning cuddles with a story. We are ‘besties’.
How will your beautiful family be celebrating Mother’s Day this year?
My beautiful boys always treat me on Mother’s Day (and many others). This Mother’s Day we are starting with a fabulous breakfast together at Daphne’s on Ponsonby Road.
