Embroidered collars by Amy Phipps
What do I like about these?
Their decoration references multiple kinds of indigenous folk crafts, they evoke both modernity and antiquity at the same time (when I see detached collars I always think of 17th century puritans but of course theirs would have been plain white). The asymmetry and simple colour scheme are also used to maximum effect.
How would I wear them?
-over a polo-neck/turtle-neck
-with anything scoop-necked
-over my coat collar
-over a jumper
With anything really. The beauty of this type of accessory is that it has no practical purpose. It is purely decorative and thus you have total freedom to wear it how and where you like.
It may seem a little steep at £100 but I would consider it an investment piece given its versatility.
