The Arte Nuova Cowl is a celebration of colourwork in the form of a cosy, luxurious Winter warmer. The colourwork design takes light inspiration from Art Deco architecture, featuring geometric, interlaced lines and shapes. The cowl is gently shaped to optimise fit and has sufficient depth to allow it to drape beautifully around the neck whilst still offering warmth and comfort.
