This Autumn collection of scarves reminds me of two things: the soft effect achieved through drawing with colored pencils and the scarf collection my Mother owned in the early 90’s which were patterned with large gold chains. Bringing together images of fall and wildlife with clock mechanics and metal armor, Swash London’s AW 2012 collection harmonizes a range of colors (from pastels to fire reds and royal purples) to draped fabrics, form fitting garments and patterned tights. On top of everything are the wonderful selections of hats from the Balmoral bonnet to an equestrian style helmet fitted with a pompom.
