Diane Scarf
Darn’s ‘A little Lift’ collection. Developed after a trip to Mexico and formulated during quarantine, this collection features a colour palette pulled from the native flower Bougainvillea and Luis Barragan’s iconic home.
After returning to the UK I took a liking to British snakehead tulips spotted poking out of meadows in the spring, with their perfect check-like pattern which reminded me of jockey uniforms I am so fond of. Keeping me company during quarantine, parrot tulips also make an appearance as a two tone design named Robyn, and were home grown by florist Boldoxlip.
Each scarf is individually named after the first female jockey race players dedicated to their history-changing achievements. ‘A Little Lift’ is my second scarf launch and pays homage to the endless inspiration that can be found in colour, nature and pioneering women.
This design is named after the legend Diane Crump (1949). The first female American to race at Kentucky Derby in 1970 age 20. In her 30 year career she won over 200 races setting a stage for all female jockeys to look up to.
