KOI – BLUE FRINGED SILK SCARF
A colorful silk twill scarf by designer Arlette Ess featuring nine different Koi varieties, in a versatile 90 cm x 90 cm format. Italian silk twill with fringed edges.This scarf combines a classic easy-to-wear format with a playful ‘eyelash’ fringe. The deep colors of the print go through the beautiful twill fabric and are almost identical on both sides of the scarf. The many colors make it easy to combine, and the fringed edges add an informal elegance.The print is based on a monochrome Indian ink drawing.The colors I added for the scarf design are the actual colors of the koi breeds. They are Sanke, Kigoi, Asagi, Tancho, Kumonryu, Matsuba, Utsuri, Goromo and Soragoi.When you wear it, you can choose which colors you want to feature more prominently, as every corner has a different color combination. The color palette is vibrant but the colors still have a softness to them, so as not to overpower the face.The scarf is printed in England onto 100% Italian silk twill, a classic scarf fab
