frou frou, thanks for the inspiration! The pareo looks good on you and perfect for the recent London weather, too.

Here's me wearing my new pareo from the recent H sale in Paris.

Gorgeous on you! (I am a collector of echec au roi shawls and had no idea it was made in a pareo too - wish I'd been at the sale too!!)
 
I use pareos as a shawl. They're wonderful in the summer months.


Good to know! The cashmere shawls are very warm in the summer months. Depending on how soft the material is, I may need to add one to my collection if I can use it as a shawl. Not sure I did want to use it as a beach cover up because it's too nice!
 
I've been eyeing the pareo but not sure if I'll get any use out of it. Do people use it more as a beach cover up or as a scarf?

Dear jyyanks! It is beautiful both ways! Got mine just recently (after reading this whole thread from first to last page ) and took it right with me on a small holiday! It is light and gorgeous for summer and I wore it left, right, center!!! ❤️ Please try it! I am sure you will fall in love, too!

Thank you for the encouragement! Now off to find the perfect one :)
 
Very happy w/my Modernisme Tropical pareo and plan to take on July 4th vacay. (Also enjoying the white silk 90cm carré in this pattern!) Thank you for reminding me about these glorious things!
