Few things in this world are as versatile as a silk scarf. Effortlessly sophisticated with a touch of vintage flair, Bond & Grace Silk Twilly Scarves are inspired by iconic works of classic literature and feature original patterns from The Secret Garden and Frankenstein Art Novels. The perfect accessory for the Female Protagonist, the woman who is unafraid to be the main character in her own story.

The Cottage Vines Silk Twilly is made in tribute to the ephemeral plant life of our beloved ecosystems, this hand-drawn garden captures the subtle and elegant, yet enduring strength of the natural world. One side is adorned with vibrant vines native to the English Moorlands and Indian blooms kissed with lavender while timeless words of wisdom from The Secret Garden whisper on the other.

For the love of history and a story seldom told, The Heroines Silk Twilly depicts the heroines of Mary Shelley’s classic novel, Frankenstein. Powerful, intelligent, brave, loyal, strong, loving, poised, and wise—personified by the female figures of the novel, each illustration emphasizes a different noble attribute of womanhood.

Whatever kind of main character you are, here are five ways to style your scarf, to accentuate your natural beauty & style.

For the Coquette: The Headband

A wide-eyed ingenue, she is endlessly flirtatious and eternally enticing, always one step ahead and never quite within reach. Think Rosemary Hoyt from F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Tender is the Night.

For the Romantic: Bound into a Braid

Sweet and starry-eyed with a head full of daydreams, her favorite character has always been Lizzie Bennett. Catch her wandering the fields and woods with her head turned to the sky.

For the Intellectual: The Necktie

Enter into a debate with her at your own risk. Her beauty is tied to her brains and she is unafraid to show it. Like Jo March, she has big dreams and needs a scarf that can keep up with her wild ambition.

For the Explorer: Tied to a Purse

Like Dorothy with her ruby red slippers and adorable wicker basket, once a month, she sends a postcard from some unimaginably exotic location. Always on-the-go, she has the best stories and her journal entries read like travel writing.

For the Tastemaker: Wrapped Around a Purse Handle

Effortlessly chic while wholly original, she’s a modern day Daisy Buchanan. She doesn’t follow trends but starts them, while it is impossible to predict her next move, she is inevitably fabulous.

No matter the genre of the story, a silk scarf is the must have accessory for every leading lady. Discover Bond & Grace silk Twillies and star in your own story. We can’t wait to see how you wear them!
