Bernadette Antwerp Silk Scarves: Three Prints, Five Ways to Wear a 65 cm Square
Bernadette Antwerp Silk Scarves: Three Prints, Five Ways to Wear a 65 cm Square
The Bernadette Antwerp silk scarf is a 65 cm square of 100 percent silk, printed and made in Italy with one of the house’s hand-drawn botanicals, at $280. It is the least expensive way to own a Bernadette print, and at that size it does more jobs than any other piece in the line.
The three prints
1. Silk Scarf in Lingerie Roses Red on Cream, $280
The house signature, red Lingerie Roses scattered across an ivory silk satin ground. The one that matches the Dara shirt, the socks and the gloves.
2. Silk Scarf in Hydrangea on Green, $280
Hand-drawn hydrangea blooming across a green silk satin base, the boldest of the three.
3. Silk Scarf in Red Berries on Pink, $280
Red berries scattered on soft pink, the lightest and the easiest with colour.
Five ways to wear a 65 cm square
At the neck. Folded on the bias into a band and knotted once at the side, over a plain crew-neck knit, and over an open shirt. The size is right for this and wrong for a long drape.
On a bag. Knotted through the cord handle of the Round Bag Embroidered in Black Lingerie Rose Embroidery on Black and around the handle of any top-handle bag. The house makes its bags to carry a print, so a matching scarf reads deliberate.
As a headscarf. Folded into a triangle and tied under the chin, which is the Bernadette way, and tied behind the head with the point at the nape.
In the hair. Rolled into a band over a low ponytail, and tied around a bun so the print sits on top.
At the waist. Threaded through the belt loops of a plain trouser, and knotted over the waistband of the Camille Knee Length Skirt in Check Cream, Brown and Pink when you want to pull the print through.
Which one
The Silk Scarf in Lingerie Roses Red on Cream if you own anything else in Lingerie Roses, because the house cuts that print across tops/shirt/" class="cvx-al cvx-al--category">shirts, pyjamas, knits, socks and gloves and a matching scarf makes a set. The Silk Scarf in Hydrangea on Green if you wear a lot of black and want one loud thing. The Silk Scarf in Red Berries on Pink if you want colour without a statement.
Care
Dry clean only, which the house states on the product page. Silk marks with water, so blot a spill rather than rub it. Store rolled rather than folded on the same crease, and keep it out of direct sun, which fades a printed silk faster than anything else.
