Leopard Cotton Scarf - Black

Leopard, but worked the way you would actually wear it. The spots are massed into broad vertical bands that run the length of the scarf, with plainer cloth left between them, so the pattern is held in columns instead of covering the whole surface.

The spots sit in the same tone as the ground rather than in a contrasting colour. That is what keeps it from reading as a loud animal print: the leopard appears where the light catches the cloth and the folds open, and settles back into texture when it does not.

In black the bands read as texture more than as pattern. The leopard shows where the light crosses the folds and disappears again, which is what makes an animal print wearable on an ordinary day.
