Here are a few of photos of mountain zebra I took today. I ended up getting one in turquoise/orange. I am not entirely sure if I made a right choice!

Ok, I read down below that you’ve decided against it. I adore fuchsia so I’m
Not the right person to ask and I also adore stripes! And it does tie beautifully... but, I’m glad that it’s going back if it didn’t sing to you!
Stunning choice! I am your twin on this beauty! Looks amazing on you!
Congrats on your first purchase of the season... It is amazing! The more I see this scarf the more I like it... It ties so beautifully and the graphic details are so unique!
My fav CW of this design so far... Love it on you!Was able to snatch this yesterday and threw it onto my mismatched outfit
Oh, it’s so beautiful!
I think you got CW1, which is the one I purchased... I love it! But, then, you really can’t go wrong with any CW in this design... It is amazing!
Please forgive me as I know that CW1 of Mountain Zebra has been shared to death here, but wanted to show a few knots that I made highlighting the zebra after I played with it a bit.
Wow!
Looks amazing on you!
I am now looking at each colourways to check for the stem!Looks fab with your lipstick!
If there’s someone who would rock this, it’s YOU!You are making me want this so bad!
@Living.la.vida.fifi - You must stop making me drool with the way you manipulate cw 01, and with such ease! I almost want to purchase a second one in this cw as a backup in case something drips onto the first one and somehow destroys it. I think I can guess at how you ingeniously tied it in picture #3, and I hope that my neck is thin enough to try that one, myself.
Thanks so much!Wow!
Looks fab with your lipstick!
Hahaha! Thank you so much! The third knot is easy. You just fold the scarf across a few times making sure that at the end the zebra’s head is visible. Then you place on side of neck, make a knot and fluff
How did you do the second knot fifi? It is so lovely!
Thank you! The outfit was a coincidence; the photo is just a try on at the boutique. I liked the scarf a lot but did not buy it.
I thought I was over the mountain zebra ... until I see your shots.
@Langsam Thank you very much, Langsam. These flowers belong to art nouveau, really.Thank you all for your perspectives, compliments, and likes! I've decided to return this scarf - your thoughts definitely helped me consider all the angles! It is a truly stunning scarf - I hope my pictures will inspire "the right person" to consider it. It is one of those "sleeper" designs that ties great.
Thanks! I love pink too! If you like vivid pink, you need to check this one out.
I'm truly honored that my pictures have helped you, @Julide. Yes, I am trying to find that line between pushing out of comfort zone (in a productive way), and avoiding the closet orphans. You never know until you try! The bold pink really does go well with denim. The helping of Bleu Jean in the stripes tones down the pink a bit, but not enough for my particular coloring unfortunately. I do know what works for me, but sometimes I deny it ....
Thank you so much! It really is a wonderful design, but you are so right - at these prices it needs to hit on all cylinders. I love your perspective that "it's all about me" - scarves are one area of life where that is a very good way to be
I like a strong lip color, but this scarf washed out even my strongest. (agree it is stunning - still available on the US site ....)
I think the stripes are actually the dark marine color, or at least not a pure hard black. That was one reason I thought it might work. Oh well - I did the experiment!
@art nouveau that is a great set of criteria. I love it with my wardrobe, but my poor face gets gray and disappeared. No good!
Well-stated @ILLYLOULOU96. This has been my most useful criterion so far in choosing scarves - "does it make me look great"? Whenever I stray from that, sooner or later I'm sorry.
@hannahsophia thank you for reminding me of this, it was a pivotal realization! There is always more to look forward to with H.
Thank you so much for these helpful pictures and analysis @blydia! Yes, I am a soft chroma girl too! "True Summer" - my hair is ashy light brown and eyes are muted green-gray. I always love seeing your scarf choices and how they fit with your soft chroma. Spoiler alert - I did try on this CW of Cosmographia at the boutique and honestly it was the only one that made me go "ooooh" immediately. Hmmm.....
ROFL "putting too much effort into this relationship"! You have captured the essence of my dilemma so succinctly @MAGJES ! Thank you for your kind compliment.
It's true .... physics can't be changed no matter how appealing a design is.
@art nouveau I was thinking about MZ CW 7 but I believe you are right, this one is for the Winters.
She has hit that spot so precisely. I just added my personal experiences about far too many never worn shawls based on the characteristics/features expressed by art nouveau.
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful photo. The shawl looks great on you and you tied it so perfectly. By the way, your photo (is it called Avatar?) is one of my absolute favourite photos of my beloved Catherine Deneuve!)
