Snow Leopard silk twilly
On cream, a wavy band of snow leopard spots, gray and silver, snakes along the ribbon among a few snowflakes. Derived from the Snow Leopard scarf, this twilly retains its gray and cream color scheme.
The twilly is a silk ribbon folded lengthwise, with tapered ends: it wraps around a bag handle, ties at the neck as a thin tie, at the wrist as a bracelet, or in the hair on a ponytail. It is the lightest and easiest silk accessory to wear in the range.
The Wearing Experience
- Gray and cream: the most understated twilly in the series, the one that goes with all bags.
- The undulation of the spots follows the movement of the handle or wrist.
- Wrapped in a spiral around a bag handle, it stays without slipping: the silk clings to itself and the flat knot finishes the spiral.
- At the neck, it ties in a small knot on the side or as a thin tie under a collar: two wraps are enough.
Know-How & Material
The Snow Leopard twilly is printed in Italy on a natural silk twill, 100% silk, the same tight weave with a subtle diagonal as our 90 scarves, recognizable by its dense hand and resistance to creasing. The print is done in high definition, which reproduces the engraving line of the design, then fixed to withstand hand washing. The edges are hand-rolled: rolled and sewn with a needle, never overlocked by machine.
The twilly is printed on a 12 cm twill strip, then folded in half lengthwise and rolled on its edges: the finished ribbon is 6 cm wide and 90 cm long, with both ends cut on the bias. The design is composed for the visible half once folded, and reads on both sides. To understand what distinguishes a twill from a silk satin, we have detailed our criteria in silk scarf, twill or satin.
Styling Tips
- On the handle of a gray or black bag, wrapped loosely.
- At the neck, over a white sweater, tied in a small knot on the side.
- In the hair, as a thin headband, with ends tied on top.
This ribbon is found throughout the silk twillies collection, derived from our scarf designs. All formats are gathered in the Misciano silk scarf collection. To go further: the art of the scarf to elevate an outfit.
Caring for Your Piece
The twilly can be washed flat in a few minutes, dried flat by pulling the ends, and barely needs ironing: it is the simplest silk piece to maintain. Cold water, mild soap, no prolonged soaking or wringing; dry flat away from sunlight, iron on the reverse at low temperature, dry iron. The steps are detailed in hand washing a silk scarf.
