Bush Berry Reversible Penefold
Bush Berry Reversible Penefold – featuring Bush Berry by Aboriginal artist Marlene Doolan.
Handmade in Australia from soft, breathable cotton, this reversible Penefold is designed for comfort, movement, and everyday joy.
Wear it on the printed side or the plain side, and enjoy it as an easy, playful piece for warm days and layered moments alike.
Artwork Meaning:
Painted by Aboriginal artist Marlene Doolan from Santa Teresa in Central Australia, Bush Berry celebrates the renewal that follows desert rain. In the semi-desert landscape around Alice Springs, wild bush berries flourish after rainfall and blossoms brighten the red earth. Through intricate dots and rhythmic patterning, Marlene captures this beauty of regeneration, abundance, and connection to Country.
Material:
Printed side in soft, breathable cotton, paired with a quilting cotton reverse side that has a little more body and structure to give the Penefold its easy A-line shape.
Sizes Available: 80 cm / 100 cm
Fit: Easy A-line flare fit
Length Note: Depending on the child’s height and size selected, the dress may fall around knee to calf length.
Size Notes: The sizes indicated refer to the child’s height range. At the corresponding height, the Penefold is designed to fall around the knee.
Care with Love:
Cold gentle machine wash below 30°C.
Line dry in shade to preserve the richness of the colours and the softness of the fabric.
Please note for our Aboriginal range:
After the first wash, a natural shrinkage of approximately 3–5% may occur, revealing a subtle band of coloured print along the edge of the plain side. This gentle reveal is an intentional part of the design.
Handmade:
Designed and handmade in Sydney, Australia
Processing:
I will process all your orders in 4 to 6 business days, and send you an email notification with your parcel’s tracking number.

“I love, love, love Marlene’s artwork. She is a colourist magician. I have seen this Dreaming in two colourways, and each one carries such a distinct mood that I am always in awe. I chose this Bush Berry Ecru number because, when I was selling the bucket hats, girls and women alike would light up when they saw this print. That joy is simply what I wish for when your little girl wears our pieces — simple, radiant joy.”
