Deep violet and jade weave together in a rich, textured all over print, colour breaking across the silk in dense, organic marks that catch differently with every fold of light. A crisp jade green border frames the design, with the YSL foulards Paris label stitched neatly into one corner. Yves Saint Laurent's silk accessories trace back to the house's very first scarf collection in the early 1960s, hand drawn rather than mechanically ruled, so the pattern shifts and reassembles in new ways depending on how the scarf is tied. True to the house, the silk carries real weight and a lovely fluid drape.

Note on colour: this scarf photographs with some variation across our images, the richer, deeper tone (violet and jade against black) is the most accurate representation of the piece in hand, rather than the brighter green seen in some shots.

Knot it at the throat to let the depth of colour sit close to the face, or fold into a wide band worn as a striking headscarf against plain black. The violet and jade combination works beautifully with charcoal, black or deep denim, and it makes a refined finishing touch looped once around the handle of a structured bag.

ABOUT THE DESIGNER: Yves Saint Laurent opened his own house in 1961 at just twenty five, having already served as Christian Dior's youngest ever successor. His scarves, produced under the Foulards label, grew out of the house's very first dedicated scarf collection, hand drawn designs that broke fashion convention with their bold colour and freehand geometry. A Saint Laurent silk carries the same confident spirit as his ready to wear, rich, considered in colour and unmistakably from one of the twentieth century's most influential houses.
