Margaret-Howell-Plus-Georgina-Von-Etzdorf-poppy-comp

More randomness this week: first of all, a scarf designed by Georgina von Etzdorf, chosen by Margaret Howell here: ‘Georgina founded her business in  1981 in the garage and stable of her parents’ home, by 1985, in addition to its signature silk and velvet scarves, the company diversified into a wide range of men’s and women’s wear, as well as household items such as kelims and cushions. It also gained a reputation for experimental and complex printing techniques on “difficult” fabrics such as chiffon, organza, chenille and wool boucle.’. There was a collection of scarves for sale on her website a year ago here and scroll down to see some of her paintings.
