Avant Toi Hand-Painted Paisley Cashmere-Silk Scarf in Nero
Hand-Painted Paisley Cashmere-Silk Scarf in Nero
Avant Toi’s hand-painted paisley scarf is an elegant way to add print and texture to simple knitwear and tailored coats. Fluid printed silk contrasts with soft cashmere-silk knit, while the Nero colourway brings black and grey tones to the knitted section. Distressed edges give it the house’s slightly undone finish, and the generous square shape drapes beautifully around the neck or over the shoulders. Available in Australia online and in-store at Riada Concept in Woollahra, Sydney.
A chic finishing touch for city lunches, weekends away and cooler evenings, wear it loosely over a black coat or navy knit. For a warmer palette, choose the Avant Toi Hand-Painted Paisley Cashmere-Silk Scarf in Yak, with its brown knitted section. Style the Nero scarf with the Avant Toi Salt-Effect Cashmere-Silk Cardigan in Navy and the Plan C Stretch Cotton Poplin Trousers in Black, letting the printed silk show at the neckline.

Is this Avant Toi scarf silk or cashmere?
It combines both. The printed fabric is pure silk, while the knitted component is 70% cashmere and 30% silk. This gives the scarf a beautiful contrast between smooth, fluid fabric and softer knit texture.
How can this square paisley scarf be worn?
Fold it diagonally and wrap it loosely around the neck, leaving some of the printed silk visible. It also drapes elegantly over the shoulders for dinner or cooler evenings. Adjust the folds to reveal more of the paisley or the knitted section.
Are the distressed edges intentional?
Yes. This Avant Toi scarf is designed with distressed edges that complement its hand-painted finish. They give the silk and knit combination a relaxed character that works beautifully with polished coats and tailoring.
What would this Nero scarf work with?
Black tailoring, grey knitwear and navy make an elegant starting point. Pair it with the Avant Toi Salt-Effect Cashmere-Silk Cardigan in Navy and the Plan C Stretch Cotton Poplin Trousers in Black, keeping the scarf loosely folded to show its contrasting textures.
Can this scarf be used as an evening wrap?
Yes. The generous square shape can be draped over the shoulders, making it a lovely addition to a simple silk top or dress. Let the printed section fall visibly at the front for a more expressive finish.
What is the difference between the Nero and Yak colourways?
Both share the same paisley silk and cashmere-silk knitted construction. Nero has black and grey tones in the knitted section, while the Avant Toi Hand-Painted Paisley Cashmere-Silk Scarf in Yak offers warmer brown tones that complement camel, cream and chocolate separates.
