I love to say that John and I go way back and there’s truth to that. He was a steady visitor to my shop in Boston in the eighties. We were both just starting out in our careers back then, fresh-faced and optimistic. He’s still fresh-faced, me not so much! But I’ve avidly followed his ascent and adore his products. I was SUPER-excited to spy his first collection of silk scarves and immediately placed an order. More art-to-wear than a simple neck wrap, these Italian-made oversized squares are so stunning, you could frame them. My favorite is Sleeping Beauty but they are all quirky and interesting (John Derian style), you’ll be hard-pressed to choose just one.
