Sweety candy scarf in flower fields

A 180 x 68 cm scarf in printed polyester

This is one of the longer rectangular formats we carry. At 180 cm it takes a double loop without the ends riding up, and at 68 cm across it still works opened out, laid over a coat rather than knotted. The print runs across the whole surface, so the detail stays readable right down to the fringing.

Two ends, two halves of one scene

The print is not symmetrical. One end is busy and close up: a girl with long dark hair, in a pink dress, standing among red, orange and white flowers, with butterflies and a dragonfly rising around her. Move towards the other end and the design thins out into black ink flourishes, scattered postage stamps and rows of handwriting. One line stands out among them: "Discover your mind, discover your soul, learn from your heart, learn to grow". A small black label is stitched into one edge.

Styling a long printed scarf, looped or open

A double loop with the fringing left hanging at the front is the easiest way to wear it, and it brings the burgundy up close to the face. Worn open, more of the scene shows, which reads better over a plain coat than over a patterned jacket. Pink sits easily with denim and grey, while the burgundy edge picks up a boot or a bag in a similar tone.

Washing and storing this polyester scarf

Polyester takes a gentle 30 °C wash. Dry it in the open air rather than in a tumble dryer, and if it comes out creased, press it on a low setting from the reverse so the print is not flattened. Rolled rather than folded, it keeps the fringing straight and avoids a crease across the middle.
