LAST CHANCE A final opportunity for you to claim a piece of style history with an end-of-line, or one-off sample before they vanish forever. DESIGNER'S NOTES A floral Fox & Chave habotai silk scarf with elements in blue and green after an illustrative work by Jane Loudon featured as plate 26 in ' The Ladies' Flower Garden ', published 1842. This design features blooms commonly known as Morning Glory from the family Convolvulaceae . Jane Loudon (1807-1858) was initially a science-fiction novelist and the writer of The Mummy! , (1827), before becoming a pioneering English writer and botanical illustrator, after marrying horticulturist John Claudius Loudon, and was best known for popularising horticulture among Victorian women. Her most influential works include The Ladies' Flower-Garden series and Gardening for Ladies (1840), which combined accessible language with beautifully hand-coloured illustrations. These books made gardening approachable for middle-class women and helped reshape domestic roles through education and art. STYLING A Fox & Chave habotai silk scarf can be worn with the classic knot style or a pussycat bow. You can even create a shawl effect by knotting two scarves together behind your neck and allowing them to drape over your shoulders.
