When I designed this set, I was living in Saskatoon, which is nicknamed the “Bridge City,” so this set takes its inspiration from the many bridges spanning the Saskatchewan River; and when I think of bridges, I think of the 1920s and Art Deco, so it’s also got an early 20th century ambience. The cloche is designed to be worn low and at a bit of an angle, with the upturned brim giving it a jaunty feel. The unique construction of the scarf not only gives you a place to stick your hands to warm them up, but when wrapped around the neck twice, offers extra design intrigue.
