Silk chiffon is a beautiful fabric to work with and a luxurious fabric to wear. The sheer, diaphanous quality allows a scarf to appear fluid subtly changing colour as it passes over your skin, your shirt or your dress.

A bright, eye-catching chiffon scarf can add an elegant, stylish accent too.

My colourful and somewhat quirky Lorina Words chiffon scarf has just been uploaded to my shop. It was inspired by the long, long needlework pieces patiently embroidered by Lorina Bulwer see previous posts ‘Words, words, words’ Part 1 and Part 2 for further details about her life and work.

And, finally, I’d just like to thank the fashion blogger, Catherine Summers, from Not dressed as lamb and her Instagram link up which prompted me to revisit ‘Sheer’.
Very elegant and love the word diaphanous – can’t remember the last time I saw it used.
Thank you. Diaphanous why use a short word when a long one will do!!!! 🙂
I really like the colours, very edible
Currently working with some ‘fallen fruit’ colours – greengage, plum and mulberry.
