Q: What are the dimensions and material of this Carré 90? A: It measures approximately 90 x 90 centimetres (about 34.8 x 34.8 inches) and is crafted from 100% silk twill with hand-rolled edges. As each hem is finished by hand, the size may vary slightly from scarf to scarf.
Q: How can I wear a Carré 90? A: The Carré 90 is wonderfully versatile. Wear it around the neck, as a headscarf, at the waist as a belt, styled as a top, or tied to a bag handle. The generous size allows for creative knots and full display of the artwork.
Q: Why might the measurements differ slightly from 90 x 90 cm? A: Because the hems are hand-rolled and finished by hand, final dimensions can vary by a small margin.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
