VANTI Goes to New York City

VANTI Designs is a line of beautiful, botanically inspired scarves by Marina Mary Georgiadis. I met her at a workshop she was giving at Van Dusen Gardens here.

Now, when I travel, I take these light, versatile pieces with me. They can be worn as tops and belts as well as in a multitude of knots and folds, over or under anything. I like to wear them long or with one knot as they seem to fall in just the most flattering, light catching ways. At the Plaza hotel, outside at the fountain, this grey, violet, purple scarf caught they eye of visitors who all ran over to take a photo.

Inside the plaza, at the grand entrance, in front of a huge display of flowers, people looked only at the scarf. I couldn't resist decorating Saks Fifth Avenue, just a bit. Two saleswomen, who came over to touch the soft silk, asked if it was one of theirs. No, I said, "Only in Canada!"

Thank you VANTI Designs and Marina for providing many conversations on the streets and in the stores of New York City. I think you should be there!
