Floral Bamboo
Floral Bamboo brings together the most cherished symbols of Chinese New Year in a soft, pastel illustration style across three beautiful colourways: cream, pink and red.
Hand-drawn bamboo anchors the print as a symbol of strength, resilience and steady growth for the year ahead, while delicate lanterns glow with the promise of light and warmth during the festive season. Sweet mandarin oranges sprout from slender branches to represent abundance and good fortune, and a “福” packet tucked among the leaves celebrates blessings arriving at the doorstep.
In the red colourway, a graceful horse motif is woven into the artwork as a special nod to the Year of the Horse in 2026, adding meaning and festive significance for the season. Designed to feel joyful yet refined, this print captures the heart of Lunar New Year traditions through soft colours, graceful motifs and a modern, uplifting spirit perfect for family celebrations.
Designed for Families in Singapore
Every elly print is hand-drawn in house by our design team in Singapore. Our Chinese New Year collection was drawn as a four-seasons series of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and most prints come in baby, kids', ladies' and men's styles, so the whole family can match for reunion dinner and house visits.
We make our pieces for Singapore weather. Most are 100% cotton or our soft jersey with 5% elastane, so they stay comfortable through a long, warm day of visiting. For Disney fans, our Disney | elly designs include Mickey and Disney Princess prints.
