we are the owls – carnival inspired scarves

I’ve featured We are The Owls here before -and when I came across New Yorker Ling Chen’s circus inspired collection of cashmere scarves I knew they’d be sneaking on here again. Everyone knows I love a fancy scarf with a fancy print – so a collection that features knife throwers, tattooed lovers, snake charmers and Houdini I’m going to be all over. There is a sort of minimalist victoriana thread going through the collection without being too literal. Despite it’s fantastical influence of circus and carnival the palette throughout remains simple and sophisticated – mostly working on whites, blacks, browns, blues and reds. I think my favourite may just be the knife thrower or the sideshow twins.
These sexy boys are available on Net-a-porter and Glassworks Studios retailing at £200 & £205. Saving up my Christmas pennies for one of these I think/hope/pray.
