Object Printed Silk Twill Carré by Gucci

£450

Few fashion accessories are as subtle or sophisticated as a silk scarf, especially in the context of art gallery meandering. This Gucci carré has the kind of graphic presence that can sharpen a blazer, soften a crisp shirt or add a twist of interest to a handbag. It’s appealing not only for its versatility, but the mood it suggests: cultured, self-possessed, slightly old-world in the best possible sense. It does not demand attention, but it certainly holds it.
