O’keeffe Layer Scarf

Size (48” long X 8” wide)

These three layered wonders are a scarf sensation. Each scarf has two layers of very soft silk, each in a different colour, with silk organza in between, adding a layer of transparent colour as well as structure. The artistry of these scarves evokes the blooming florals of Georgia O’keeffes magnificent paintings.

The scarves can be wrapped and tied in many ways, providing gorgeous embellishments of colour and style.

The colour range is endless, with new combinations coming each season.

Silk Organza Twists

Size (35” wide x 74” long)

A scarf so light and cloud soft, it compacts into a nest of fabulous colour framing the face and adding an exciting element to an outfit.

These softened organza scarves are our newest find. They are lovely, versatile and heavenly to wear. Wind them around the neck once, twice even three times. Wrapped and knotted or loose and flowing this scarf is amazing. 

It doubles as a large silk gossamer wrap to drape around your shoulders. It can be knotted at the front for an arms free, filmy cover up. It makes for a stunning wedding, cocktail or garden party must have. Or pair it with jeans and sandels and you have an easy casual look. In the winter, tuck it into your coat or jacket collar to keep you super toasty while looking super chic. Use it as a sash, bathing suit cover up, wrap up your hair…  Each dyelot varies so every shipment produces beautiful new surprises. Contact us directly for a photo of our current colour selections.

Tips on tying and wearing Scarves

Oblong scarves look wonderful on suits, jackets, sweaters and even tee shirts.

For the popular “hacking” knot:

Fold scarf in half, slip one hand in loop while holding ends securely with the other hand. Place scarf behind neck, passing ends in front of neck to the hand inside the loop. Let go of ends while pulling them through loop with the opposite hand. Alternatively slip one end through loop and weave the other end over one side of loop and under the other side for a woven look (see green soft organza twist above)

You can wrap the scarf once or twice around the neck with the ends falling loosely in front or tie in a simple knot at the center or to one side of the neck. The trick with scarf wearing is not to fuss too much.
