Another sunny day, another vibrant print to share with you all!

This is the third design from a collection of prints inspired by the shapes, colours and textures of Crosby beach and Antony Gormley’s Another Place. I played around with so many different versions before settling on (what I think is) the final design ☺️. Some variations contained more orange, some more pink, and others contained more blues and purples. As this print forms part of a collection, I had to consider the piece alongside the others, striking the balance creating something unique whilst ensuring it forms part of a cohesive collection.

Most things I create begin with some kind of collage ✂️🗒️

For anything fashion related, I find that collage is an essential part of my idea generation process; the act of cutting up the inspirational images from my mood board and repositioning the dissected pieces helps me to see shapes and textures that I would not have otherwise considered. Each collage also has its own style and energy, and through this I can also begin to think about colour pairings and fabric choices. Before beginning this process, I would never have thought about experimenting with a lightweight denim fabric and using sea sponges to dab it with bleach, for example, but these are some of the ideas that emerge. Not all of them work, of course, but it’s important to try these things out!

I made these collages a while back using personal photographs I have taken over a number of years of Crosby beach and Antony Gormley’s Another Place (I grew up near here so that explains the connection ☺️) and now I’m revisiting them to create something new. I especially love the colours, what about you?

New designs are coming… 💗

…and they contain a lot more blue than I normally use.

Inspired by the shapes, colours and textures of Crosby beach and Antony Gormley’s Another place, my newest collection uses palettes featuring blues, pinks, oranges and yellows (with the occasional flash of purple) to evoke the dramatic sunsets that can be seen from the beach all year round.

What type of fabric do you think this print would be most suited to?

What beautiful spring weather we have here in London at the moment! 🌼☀️

Last year, I wrote a blog post with 12 scarf knot tutorials for spring, and it remains the most popular page on my blog. Today’s beautiful weather has prompted me to reshare the images from the post for a bit of style inspiration as we transition into our spring wardrobes. The featured photographs are the ‘finished pieces’, but you can follow the step-by-step guides for creating each style by visiting https://www.shelleyphysick.co.uk/blog/12-creative-ways-to-tie-your-mulberry-silk-scarf-this-spring or via stories/instagram highlights.

All scarf knots were made using a rectangular scarf, but most styles can also be recreated with a square scarf if you fold it into a triangle first, and then into a long strip, as this will give you a rectangular shape as your starting point ☺️.

Have you tried any of these styles before? Do you have a favourite?

🌿📸 Final design vs design inspiration.

Last week, I visited for their Orchid Festival, and I also took our Silvana scarf with me.

The Silvana scarf is part of a collection of silk bandana scarves that I created last year after a visit to Kew Gardens. I took MANY photos that day, and used several of them to create a series of compositional collages, which informed the first part of my design process. Scroll through to see some of the research images 🌱🍃.

The strong lines in the Silvana print are actually taken from the metal structure of the palm house, and I loved how the glass panes appeared to be ‘speckled’ with leaves as I gazed upwards. That mixture of organic forms and geometric shapes became a key feature of the design.

Can you recognise any other shapes or motifs from the Silvana print in the photos?

Hello, how is everything going?

I’m so sick of the rain and grey skies that I’m feeling the need to share something a bit brighter! Recently, I’ve been revisiting some older work based on Crosby beach and Antony Gormley’s Another Place, and this is a current design that I’m working on. If you’ve ever seen a sunset from that beach, you will understand my choice of colours!

I think I prefer it with a pink background, but I can’t decide fully… what do you think? 💗 or 💙?

⭐️ NEW STYLE GUIDE ⭐️

I’ve just updated my blog, and I’ve added some style ideas for how to wear a silk twilly scarf. Available at www.shelleyphysick.co.uk/blog/how-to-style-a-silk-twilly-scarf or via the link in bio.

Have a look and a read, and let me what you which is your favourite! ❤️

Hello and how is your afternoon going?

I’m working on a few more twilly styling ideas before I put everything together in a blog post, and one of today’s experimentations gave me this result. Here, I took a staple work dress with a waist tie, and intertwined the twilly whilst fastening the waist ties into a bow. The vibrant colours of the twilly do just enough to break up the block of plain navy, without detracting from the simplistic elegance of the look. What do you think? Is this an idea you might like to try?

Good morning and happy Friday!

I’m currently working on a blog post on ways to style our twilly scarves, and I’ll also be sharing a few ideas and pictures over the coming days. Here, you can see our Lavinia Silk Twilly being styled with a white shirt at a styling event back in November. Interestingly, the twilly is knotted at the back of the neck, with the ends left to hang loosely down the back. Have you tried this before?

✨ Three ways to wear our Stella Twilly ✨

The Stella Twilly was our most popular piece during the run up to Christmas. The name Stella (meaning star) alludes to the inspiration behind this vibrant design, the London night sky 🌃. I love the name choice because Stella was also the name of my grandma ❤️.

Here, I paired our Stella Twilly with a dark blue ensemble and I think it livens up the block colours by adding a flash of something exciting. Twilly scarves can be worn in many ways (including in your hair and as an adornment to the handles of your handbag), and I wanted to share three possible ways of tying a twilly around around your neck.

1. Classic, simple knot, leaving the ends to hang loosely.

2. Tied closely around the neck, in a French knot.

3. Twisted to form a mini rosette.

Which one is your favourite?

🧣❄️ Silk scarves and cold weather: how do they fit together?

Did you know that, as a natural fibre, silk has special properties that can regulate our body temperature, keeping us cool in summer, but warm during winter?

Here are some pictures of how I’ve been styling our Silvana Silk Twill Bandana Scarf during these colder months. Silvana was originally designed as part of a summer collection, but, as a versatile piece, she can be worn in different ways throughout the entire year.

I’ve been wearing a lot of thick jumpers recently, and this green one that I hand knitted pairs well with the warm, earthy tones in the Silvana scarf. Despite this chunky-knit jumper being incredibly warm, it still left my neck exposed and I felt like I needed an extra something to cover up a bit more. For this scarf knot, I folded the scarf into a triangle, then knotted one end; then, holding the knotted end firmly, I twisted the length of the scarf multiple times to create this effect. Afterwards, I secured the other end with a small knot, before placing it around my neck. It’s possible to wrap the length around your neck twice if you twist it more tightly, or once if you go for the looser effect.

When heading outdoors, I added this handmade cape for extra warmth. What do you think? Have you paired silk with chunky knits before?
