We are pleased as punch to announce a new collection of
beautiful resort
scarves and wraps. Gottex and
Profile by Gottex bring us vivid colors and ethereal fabrics, all perfect for a
tropical setting.
These scarves are hand-painted in colorful, bold patterns,
any of which would pair seamlessly with a vacation wardrobe. For example, Jasmine is quintessential
tropics, with its pinks, yellows, aquas and greens in an abstract floral
pattern. Tropical Mirror combines exotic
purple, pink and red blooms with black and white stripes. Royal Peacock proudly joins lush teals and
deep purples in an eye-catching graphic print.
Dragonfly brings us drama with a rich mixture of blues, emerald, white,
and highlights in pink. And finally, Aztec
boasts an intensely hued tribal pattern in hot pinks, orange and black.
We love multi-tasking travel items, and these scarves work
hard and look great while doing it. Starting
with the obvious, a scarf makes a beautiful neck accessory, highlighting the
face and adding instant color to any outfit.
There are many ways to tie a scarf, so a single scarf can have multiple
looks. But what else can a scarf or wrap
do? On a chilly evening, or in an
air-conditioned building, a scarf can double as a shawl, draped around the
shoulders for warmth. Heading to the
beach? Spending the day poolside? Bring your scarf! Wrap it around your waist, pareo-style, for a
quick and elegant swimsuit cover-up. Wear
it as a head-covering for a glamorous look.
While traveling to and from your warm weather destination, you’ll
appreciate having a wrap handy – while on the chilly plane, and when you touch
down in winter weather.
A scarf or wrap is a superstar when it comes to simplifying
the task of packing for your cruise or resort holiday. Pack neutral clothing pieces that easily mix
and match, such as white, navy, black and other solids. Bring several boldly colored scarves to add a
punch of color and drama to your outfits.
For example, a simple white dress becomes a gorgeous resort ensemble when
a Dragonfly scarf is draped around the neck.
Or, make a color statement: start with a crisp blouse in bright pink,
then top with a brightly patterned Aztec scarf.
Tropical Mirror is striking when paired with black. Envision a black shell, white skirt and
Tropical Mirror wrapped around the waist: simply beautiful. For more inspiration on wearing scarves and
wraps, see 6 Ways
to Wear a Scarf.
All scarves in the new line-up are a generous 80” by 28”,
making them large enough to act as a shawl or pareo. But the fine fabrics are compact, so not only
do they work well as a scarf or head-wrap, they also pack small in your luggage
or carry-on. The Gottex scarves are 20%
silk and 80% rayon, while Profile by Gottex scarves are 100% rayon. All the scarves have a touch of sheerness,
giving them a lovely airiness.
