“Forget me not” is a series of Art mode digital prints on scarves and turban, all 100% silk. As an extension of the coco’s work as an illustrator, all designs are based exclusively on personal compositions and all elements have been hand-drawn by her. Coco was commissionned for magazines such as Vogue, Nylon, ELLE, and Muse as well as a number of corporate clients: K Karl Lagerfeld, Evian Cosmetics and Addition Adelaide in Japan. It was this rapid success that convinced Coco to set up Forget Me Not, a line of exquisitely hand-rendered, digitally printed scarves. It is a small collection, always of three original design themes in two separate colour waves, which encapsulates the essence of feminine beauty, balancing ethereal imaginary worlds and delicate penmanship against strong geographic patterns and a rich palate of colours.
The collection is available in a selection of Luxury Stores around the world : Barneys (USA), Boon the shop (Korea), Cochinechine (London) Colette (Paris), Club designer (Taiwan), Fenwick ( London ), Jean Brown ( Australia ), Lane Crawford ( Hong kong ) Storm (Copenhagen), Tea Rose ( Italy ) and More
