Your neck just isn't dressed this summer until it's adorned with a 100% silk zigzag neckerchief. 

Eco friendly dyes and had rolled seams have gone into making this screaming 1930s art deco style jazz number and will go perfectly with the new summer POLO SHIRTS.

At 60cm x 60cm silk square big enough for the largest necks.  Available in red or green or both.

I needs 'em. Both.

[Sean Longden]

Absolutely!

Great!

Tell me you stole that jacket from Willyto to copy.... please! I love the look of it.

[Bn1966]

Lovely!!!!!! Want a red one :-)

Little dilemma fellas.  Red has sold 3 time that of green.  Now it might be just that the green wasn't as presented as well to start with, but let's face it, we all love the red, navy and cream combo, is green harder to wear, maybe.  

So before I dig deep (and trust me its deep) on green what other colourways could you suggest?  

I was talking to Swinglish before, here is one we thought of.

 

Or go for a polka dot?


Or just stick to one design for this summer?

[Sean Longden]

Stick to one design (which is the best one anyway). Two colour schemes , at one time, to a limited market, was always ambitious.

[Nik]

Hm, tough one. Rust/cream/something (option: light blue rather than black) looks good, but it wont be presented any better than the green.
Do the red polka instead? That one could still be shot properly.

Although I agree that green is more difficult to wear, it's probably the presentation. People may have difficulties with the green shots showing no texture of the fabric.

Sean's advice seems like the most reasonable.

[Sean Longden]

My personal decision not to order the green was based on my not being able to decide what I would wear it with. Green mixes well with certain colours, such as brown, but i don't find that brown and black work together (for me, anyway).

Also, neckerchiefs are a workwear thing, but I wouldn't mix the green with blue denim.

I could have mixed it with a cream linen jacket, but the black would look too harsh for that type of outfit.

Do what you have to do. Keep the business going and shed all the things that don't sell. It's a pity though because I really liked the green.

Did you not share the picture from the actual sample? How many samples did you get?

[swinglish]

I ordered the green, I see no problem with wearing it with denim etc, so I'll be disappointed to see it not come through. But ultimately, business is business... it's a chunk of money to throw at 100 scarves if they don't look like they'll sell.

but then... there have been no 'fit pics' of the green actually being worn with stuff (other than the mock up I made and posted above), so it hasn't had the same exposure as the red / blue.

If there are actual samples available, why not get them shot on some people... particularly on some female models! You don't shoot enough (any?) stuff on females Simon, you're missing a massive possible market.

[SJC]

Yes they are sending them over. I'm just scratching the bottom of the overdraft here and i cannot sit on 90 green scarves
