Redon Ophelia Silk Habotai Scarf

DESIGNER'S NOTES

This Fox & Chave silk habotai scarf features a pattern derived from the floral element of the work Ophelia among the Flowers (1905-8) by the French painter Odilon Redon.

A drawing in pastel that depicts Shakespeare's tragic character, Ophelia, surrounded by vibrant, surreal blossoms offers a striking example of Redon's symbolist artistry. Redon's vivid colours and intricate details convey both beauty and a sense of melancholy, inviting viewers into a dreamlike world of emotions and symbolism.

STYLING

A Fox & Chave habotai silk scarf can be worn with the classic knot style or a pussycat bow. You can even create a shawl effect by knotting two scarves together behind your neck and allowing them to drape over your shoulders.
