Other sections illustrate the contributions of makers and personalities in scarf design over the past century such as Elsa Schiaparelli, Sonia Delaunay, Pierre Cardin, Pierre Balmain, Tamara de Lempicka, Versace and Vivienne Westwood, as well as commentary from the houses of Missoni and Ferragamo. Still other sections depict historical photographs and paintings of the technological process of scarf-making over history from the Kashmir region to the creation of the jacquard loom, with particular focus on the influence of the Italian Como region, home to numerous revered scarf and silk manufacturers.Dimensions (Overall): 11.0 Inches (H) x 9.5 Inches (W)
