I love wild, untamed gardens, and when (in “Pride & Prejudice”) Lady Catherine de Bourgh mentions to Lizzy she would like to take a turn around the “prettyish little wilderness” I wanted to design a shawl with that in mind. Not quite a triangle, not quite a crescent, it is a shawl that hugs around your shoulders with rows of flowers and a lace accent.
