Here at Smoking Lily we like to honor outstanding Canadians, so in celebration of Mr. Suzuki's birthday, we've made a special edition David Suzuki Garden State Dress. They cost $123, and75% of that will be donated to the David Suzuki Foundation. This is a non-profit organization based out of Vancouver that focuses on issues relating to oceans and sustainable fishing, climate change, clean energy and sustainability.
Our lovely, pregnant, Stephanie was also kind enough to model this awesome dress for us. She asked me to point out that it is perfect for being pregnant in. She also stipulates that it will be quite good for breastfeeding as well. For those of us who are not pregnant, please note that this dress will look hot on you as well and that just because you are not busy creating life doesn't mean you shouldn't wear one, too.
Thank you David Suzuki for allowing us to silkscreen your face all over our dresses. Also for all of the great things you have done, are doing, and will go on to do. Happy 75th!

Awesome!
This is fabulous! Do you know if there will be a t-shirt? I have a man in my life who would love to declare his love for Mr. Suzuki, but doesn't like dresses.
Mr. Suzuki kindly agreed to us using his image on the dresses for this particular fundraiser. We are currently talking with his foundation about continuing to use the silk-screens on other garments (such as T-shirts) and donating a percentage of those sales to the foundation as well. We'll keep you posted!
I love this dress and the print...but wondering if there will be other prints in this gorgeous teal colour?
Hi Anonymous,
Just David, right now. I managed to only snag one roll of this delicious colour. The company says more is on the way, I will keep my eye out.
Happy Spring
Trish
Great print. I like the design a lot, I wonder if you'll be able to get David into that?! :)
How can I buy one of these gems? I was just on your site and couldn't see it there. What a fabulous collaboration!! Thank you!
