Every design starts as Aubrey's own artwork. The silk twill is woven in China, the home of silk; each scarf is then printed in Bangkok and its edges rolled and hemmed by hand, with his signature in the print. ## Ways to wear it - **At the neck**Fold into a long band and knot loosely at the front or side. - **In the hair**As a headscarf, or folded narrow and tied around a ponytail. - **On a bag**Tied to the handle, so the color shows from across the room. - **As a top**Folded into a triangle and knotted behind the neck and back. ## How this design began Began as Aubrey's pencil sketches of banana leaves. He refined the line work, mirrored it, then coloured it in Photoshop. > “I refined the line work, mirrored it, then coloured it in Photoshop until the pattern held together.” > > Aubrey Kurlansky [More about Aubrey Kurlansky and how he designs](https://thekansocollective.com/aubrey-kurlansky/artist/) ![Aubrey Kurlansky's pencil sketch of banana leaves, the start of the print](https://thekansocollective.com/aubrey-kurlansky/img/artist/banana-leaves-pencil-sketch.jpg) A 90 cm silk twill scarf from a famous fashion house costs over $600.
